Pardon my 3am blunder, you are correct! I should have only said cars.
If you can find cars and (not trucks) that don't say this in the manual:
"Toyota does not recommend towing a trailer with your vehicle.
Toyota also does not recommend the installation of a tow hitch
or the use of a tow hitch carrier for a wheelchair, scooter, bicycle, etc. Your vehicle is not designed for trailer towing or for the
use of tow hitch mounted carriers"2019 camry manual
You can find a plethora of cars and small crossovers which have a tow rating of half their weight or lower.
Almost all of the cars on that list have a tow rating of LESS than half of their weight. Look up the curb weight of a malibu for example.
Here's what I was talking about for other countries:
You're allowed to tow more than the weight of the car with all of the safety stuff.
