It also questions my experience which is just funny.
I'll say it again: The "difference" between a condenser and a dynamic is mostly distance.
OK frequencies response... If you don't need the extended top end from the condenser then maybe you shouldn't use one, but you could also just EQ it out. If there's something ugly up there that the dynamic rolls off, a filter will do just as well.
I know people who use condensers live with damn good results. The first reason most people don't is tradition/superstition. There's also the very good point that dynamics tend to be more robust and reliable and resistant to damage. Also of course they handle higher SPL levels and give a lower output. Some condensers on some sources into some mic pres just can't not clip. With a dynamic you can always find a "safe spot" on the trim knob.

And condensers feedback easier
