I've seen many, many folks have to cover their tent ends with tarps, plastic, all kinds of different covers to help prevent this.

I see this for almost every hybrid I have come across...

Must be a regional thing. I never covered my tent ends in the 12 years I owned a hybrid and I can't remember seeing more than 1 or 2 other people do it. The only time we got condensation inside was when it was cold outside and warm inside (October) and never to the extent it was dripping on us. A quick wipe with a towel took care of it. Way overblown in my experience.
