Do we agree that having them a bit "foggy" once in a while on a cold morning is not that concerning, literally every Tesla I've seen is affected. It's when big droplets starts to appear like in the picture above that we should escalate to service?

Condensation in rear lights

Yep. I put up with one of mine fogging up regularly for over a year but eventually it reached the point that the water droplets never dried out so I had it swapped.
(I did have a Ford Capri back in the day I could have kept goldfish in the rear lights. More a 'water feature' than a condensation problem. The boot would fill up with water too, but I solved that by drilling a hole in the boot floor).
Just double check the rim of the boot to make sure it isn't hitting the light when it closes. That’s what was causing one of my lights to do this by breaking the seal, and chipping away at the paint so it got nice and rusty! The sc can re-align the boot so it stops hitting things when it closes.
