I didn't notice you say you tested anything. Only that the connections seem ok. Did you test anything for voltage? If not, STOP. Go get a decent tester. You CANNOT troubleshoot without one.
If you do have one, tell us where you do have voltage and where you don't. Tell us if this voltage is being tested to ground or to neutral.

Also, shower stall lighting does not automatically require GFI protection. This is not a NEC requirement.

In 20 years of doing this for a living I have never seen, nor even heard of, this being done. So I'm not to sure "Most of the time" is an appropriate description.
Must be a local thing.
