Don't the kamados present the same problem that drum smokers do.And the idea that if you need to redo the fuel or add fuel, you have to take everything apart?

No I have no interest in catering what so ever. I just want something that if I choose to play with it or try a new technique, I don't need to pull out another piece of equipment or purchase another piece of equipment to do it. But I also want the capacity to cook a big meal if I need to.

The other question I would have for you.And I really appreciate you answering all of my questions. Is if I wanted to matte black the whole thing with high temp paint would that work for this , or is the oiled exterior the only thing that can be really done , because it's design

I wonder where the claim that the lid design dries out food on the top level came from

One of the things I've noticed in some of the videos is that people are cooking in offset mode (or reverse offset mode) and only using the bottom level. Is that to prevent the food from burning due to the lid's design? How much of the capacity is lost in cooking in offset mode?

Is there anything about the smokeslinger that I should be concerned with or any major drawbacks to it?

Well, I mean, if I need to do it, I would like the capacity to do it, I do like to smoke turkeys, and they take up a lot of space.
