Actually an overly literal reading of your use of the word "all" here suggests the following interesting question: vis a vis Ruvanal's discovery of the over 100% immunities psuedo-healing, could CS/DS actually add in damage that mattered in full, even though otherwise the physical damage is being overwhelmed by the psuedo-healing effect of the elemental adder(s)?

If I had the current damage code in front of me, as with when Jarulf posted parts of it long ago, it would be obvious how "all" should be interpreted. Just a thought (I have seen my heavily enchanted rogue hireling kill a fire immune, but I have no idea what the numbers were, so this might be an indication, or totally irrelevant--clearly testing could answer the question as opposed to just code reading).
