I haven’t noticed anyone indicating that they felt insulted. What I see, and what is true in my case, is that everyone who replied is concerned with some combination of your safety, the success of your project, or the quality of advice you are getting elsewhere.
As for the rest, an RV with a factory rat’s nest of wire is a prime candidate for a complete do-over to make it both professionally done, and more safe, and also much easier to work on in the future. But like others here, without more info I’ll default to my standard response on RV electrical and not offer advice on work that could lead to a life safety issue without andditional information.
Since make model and year are out of the question, maybe you can satisfy some curiosity here by posting some pics. I know I would find it interesting and having just sold my coach due to health reasons I will be living my RV life vicariously through the questions, projects, successes, and travels of others.
What I will say is that you can install a bullet proof electrical system in your RV using standard 12 and 14 gauge romex because the problems that arise come from incorrect installation or usage, not wire failure. It’s what happens at the ends of said wire that causes the problems, not the wire itself, unless you plan to put abnormal electrical loads on your RV.
