> all the electrons in the entire material basically form one giant condensate

Very not my field, but perhaps that's "all the paired electrons"? Brief ai-ing (do we have a verb yet?) suggests only some small fraction of conduction electrons form pairs, let alone all the rest.

Only Cooper pairs can condensate, but in a superconducting material at the critical temperature Cooper pairs account for nearly all free electrons.
