> I did that set-up [ with both no top insulation and no upper entrance]
in 2015-2016 with one colony

We all know that ice can form above the cluster in a colony without top
insulation.
My question is whether anyone has run a controlled test to see whether a
top vent will reduce that ice buildup.
I appreciate the observation, but an n of one with no control cannot tell
us whether a top vent would have reduced the amount of condensation above.
