NHTSA has a site where one can obtain interpretations from their legal counsel. I’ve included it below. I’ve often found it very useful.

: "History with government documents" has me worrying right off the bat. That said, as was mentioned, the weights, as told to me by anyone/everyone (along with my "superficial" research), does not include the weight of the propane. On the other hand, that should be completely irrelevent. If someone is looking at, or towing, an RV where the weight of the propane is an issue....they shouldn't be there in the first place. Of course that is JMHO, and as usual...YMMV.
(and I defer to Javi's "old daddy" observation).
