I wouldn't be without my two-burner stove in the camper.
My first reason for getting a camper was because i was tired of fighting wind, rain, snow, etc. while cooking on a stove outside. For me, I didn't mind sleeping in a tent -- I didn't buy the camper because I wanted a comfy bed. I bought it for comfy cooking -- indoors.
And I don't need more counter space...not sure what I'd use it for. (more storage space is a different story)
But...I know some do most of their cooking outside -- everyone has different styles.

2+ Mark. I wouldn't be without it. We cook all our meals outside on a Weber Q Grill. It is nice having the stove if we want or need to cook inside. My wife boils water to make coffee in our coffee press. We have the glass top on the stove (more counter space), but not on the sink. I think the stove is important.

3+ Mark.
I don't think I'd order a FWC without an indoor stove simply for its re-sale potential. Most folks will want the ability to cook inside the camper.
Having said that, I have the flush mount 2-burner stove and sink. I have only used the indoor stove for boiling water for coffee or tea in the morning when I'm trying to get a quick start down the road and dried pasta. I tend to do most of my cooking out side. One, I have always enjoyed cooking/grilling outside v inside. Two, it doesn't introduce food odors to all the fabrics in the camper.
Our outside cooking setup at Point Sublime, Grand Canyon back in May. Cooking an anchoive based pasta sauce!
Inside for boiling water...
I'm a messing cook, but, a great kitchen cleaner!
and of course, just when you think you're unwired, wife discovers one bar on her iPhone with barely line of sight comms to South Rim Visitors Center!
Note, the portable solar panel case makes the perfect wind screen for cooking outside!

Yup MarkBC, we agree. The wind blows, it snows and rains and sometimes it is pretty darn cold. Being minimalists, we carry only one stove, the two burner installed in our counter.

Well, I can't let the shell campers' view go unrepresented...
We are kind of minimalists too. We carry only one stove. We don't have a stove or sink in our camper and do just fine. We do have a fridge. We like cooking/living outdoors- that's the point of camping for us. We use a partner stove. If the weather is too bad, we can easily cook indoors with our setup- but it's a rare last resort. I do like having a nice bed out of the elements for sleeping, which is the first reason why we have a camper.
There are as many ways of camping as there are campers.
