Decide what is important to you and choose from the RV's out there that cater to your concerns. To me strength and reliability trump the paltry difference between temperature transfer variations of the two construction methods.
Thank you for your advice (and to everyone who commented!) Much appreciated.

My purchase will be for long-term stationary use and so highway factors like tow weight are not as important to me.

I'm concerned that heat transfer is closely related to sound/noise transmission.
