2016 43' DSDP Weight Issues?

I know they do a calculation for full fuel to get to the official UVW Weight, but when they actually put a unit on the scale and record the axle weight it is with little fuel, and I did not see a calculation where the added weight for a full fuel tank to the scale reported corner and axel weights. The reported 15,500 front axle is from a scale with little fuel.

CentILRVer posted this thread that helps explain why the sudden increase in GVWR. Also he has weights, both at delivery and lightly loaded for his particular coach near the end of the post.
