It appears the shop didn't adjust the rear camber. I guess you could take it back and have them even it up

Looks like they didn't touch front camber either.

Just a "toe-n-go", shooting for dead-middle values of the toe ranges..

Yup toe-n-go. Front camber isn’t adjustable unless you’d put in camber plates, so yeah.

A lot of shops still probably don’t know the rear camber is even adjustable, as the spot is kind of hidden and doesn’t feature the usual alignment adjustment fasteners. Its a pain to adjust too. Doesn’t look like they touched yours, most alignment racks aren’t super repeatable to 0.1 degree of camber so the before/after numbers being off by 0.1 isn’t surprising.

There's no real need to match it up to either of the values that the car has now. -1.3° might loosen the handling up a little and make the car drive a little lighter/smaller than it is.

Hmm, I've been under the impression that when I ask for a wheel alignment, they're going to give me what the car is "best for". I actually don't have any particular preferences nor do I track the car. They haven't gotten back to me yet but do you recommend I tell them just do -1.3 on both sides on the rear?

Don’t sweat 2/10ths for rear camber. Its very hard to get the left right sides to match exactly with the stock parts.

Anything in the 1.3-1.6 range would probably be perfectly fine for a daily driver. 2/10ths delta between sides is acceptable IMHO.
