It is possible to cover all eventualities in speech and use vast, rambling, convoluted sentences like this to make sure all points are covered, but it tends to bore the *rse off the reader who will mostly be aware of these obvious subtleties anyway. For that reason I try to be as concise as possible, though I realise it will leave me vulnerable to nitpicking and pedantry from certain individuals.
You're right - tolerance to benzos is not universal, but it is very common. Most people develop some degree of tolerance to the initial dose. The same can be said of other drugs of abuse in some circumstances.
