I'd also let it be used in place of merchant for haggling a wide variety of purchases.

Close but not quite, It's not a commercial kitchen that it for, it for commercial cooking. This means high cuisine means and presentation are the focus not special equipment. Though it might be needed to get the most out of some equipment but doesn't require it.
Cooking would be used on TL3 Banquet so it not equipment based.
But yes Housekeeping would be the more appropriate for campfire cooking than cooking though
Housekeeping = cook the family meal
Cooking = impress with cooking.
