It's a potential problem for all blasters that use plunger tubes and traditional tight barrels, yeah.

But not "all blasters". Obviously flywheels are immune to this, since there's no compressed air involved and they don't even HAVE an AR. And in the family tree of "all blasters" there are innumerable wild variations of vented barrels and loose/decorative barrel extensions and even "reverse barrels" that make TIT a smaller (or larger) factor in each case.

And whether AR removal alone is enough to make TIT a noticeable issue depends on cylinder/barrel length and the capacity/volume of the plunger tube.
