Working in tech and being intimately familiar with the technology, I would not say the camera article is definitive.
It's not that it's inaccurate; rather, it appears to be the best attempt by someone researching for their own purposes who based their information on things they read, often in marketing literature, without understanding the "how and why" fundamentals.
They also don't go into the multi-camera systems that you're interested in.
The unfortunate reality is that none of them are perfect. If you prefer to spend substantially more, the commercial fleet systems are the highest quality; however, you'll typically do better by wiring it once and simply upgrading systems every few years. You'll have a better / more up-to-date product and in the end it will ultimately cost less.
I'm not (yet) familiar with running wire in Newells; however, as with any RV, you can always run the length of the coach from the rooftop. Of course your experience re:Wireless is spot-on; avoid them, no matter how much you prefer the convenience. The money to have someone else install for you will be a far better investment than compromising with wireless to avoid the installation hassle (in my humble opinion).
