I never had one caliper bolt "back out". Maybe because I never use antiseize on them...
My guess for the Dorman ones was that they are too soft/plastic and the threads "give" instead of staying pressed one in outher by the original torque.
This happens for example when you screw some steel bolts in aluminum - aluminum threads "give" a little bit in time and those bolts need to be retighten after one-two weeks.
