Oh of course, for newbie engineers, use dynamics. Never argued against that.
As far as blown condensers, there can be many reasons. The engineer may have been an idiot. The mic may have been cheap. The preamp may have been cheap. Who knows?
And live? I wouldn't expect a condenser to be used to close-mic live. Not saying it would never be done, but like you, I've never seen it.
I do have several recordings with using an AT4047, in fact there's a mic shootout test that I posted here about a year ago or so comparing a Beta 52 with the 4047.
