2015 P/P, in service date 11-05-15, just over 25k. There is heavy condensation inside the passenger side brake/turn signal assembly. I am thinking the 3/36 BTB warranty should cover it, there has never been any damage. Should I return it to stock tune before it goes in?

I would, you never know when a friendly service advisor or tech decides to update the PCM calibration for you. In addition to them possibly making a note that the car may be tuned.

There would be no reason to to touch pcm calibration or look at it for a lamp concern. There is no connection with a tune to condensation in the lamp.

Don't waste your time.

It hardly takes 5 min to go to stock and 5 to reload, if the strategy code remains the same. Many people have experienced the downside of not doing so, hence the recommendation.

What should go down.
An appointment is made. They look at the lamp and compare to the General Service Bulletin maybe clean the car if necessary. Maybe remove the lamp to make sure the backside is not damaged. 3 photos are taken at a min. 3/4, over all and close up.

After this the dealer submits for prior approval. The Technical Assistance Center Prior Approval team review the photo and asks questions, gives a conditional approval, or approves the tail lamp assembly.

I was wondering about the venting. I am at the tail end of a 4 day business trip, I took another car to the airport and left the SHO in the garage to see if it would clear up. The fog wasn't so much what concerned me, it was the water droplets. Know later today. Thanks for the responses guys! (or, gals, as the case may be!)
