There are 2 schools of thought. 1 is the typical RVer school where ALL TTs need a wdh with sway control.
2 is the rest of the world that haul trailers of all shapes and sizes day in day out without much concern, especially with reasonable and moderate loads like your camper.

Because an unloaded dually WANTS some weight in back. 0 need unless itโs killing the hitch receiver. But to that point, Iโll point out the vast numbers of duallies that fire up every morning with Waaaay more hooked up than that.....every day every where.
Remember like 95% of the wdh users are RV ers and 95% of the trucks are not towing travel trailers.
95% of pickups are towing utility trailers with low sides and less than 3-4,000lbs.
I see duallies running around empty all the time. They seem to survive just fine. If it really needs extra weight, throw some sand bags in the back, so it will be happy when there is no trailer hooked up.
The effort to use them is negligible, they already have them and they do improve the ride & safety. So far you haven't provided any logical reason not to use them other than you seem to think it's more macho not to.

I highly doubt that 6,000 lbs. tongue weight capacity. A class 5 hitch - the heaviest pull-behind hitch made, is rated for a maximum of 2,000 lbs. pin weight. The Ford towing guide for 2000 shows that some of the E350 wagons with the V-10 had a 6,500 lb. max trailer weight. I think you've gotten max trailer weight and tongue weight mixed up.

Look to the construction world and you will see that almost no one uses a WDH. I donโt recommend it, but itโs real world.
