Bingo. It does work with all lights. Correct fitment, installation, and torque is key to longevity. Doesn't matter if it's aftermarket or stock, it's equally as important.
Thing is, the factory installs your stock lights, which is why you see less issues with condensation in them. Your average person is installing aftermarket lights, which is why you see more issues. Not the light's fault, there's just a higher level of control in installation at the factory.
People are quick to blame to product when they see an issue like condensation in the lens. That's human nature to find something to blame. When you dig a little deeper, you often find signs of human error contributing to the problem. Nobody likes to admit they made a mistake.
