Looking at this. Wouldn’t more camber than what it comes with up front hurt this issue?
That's the conventional wisdom, but toe accelerates wear much more because the tire isn't rolling its constantly scrubbing with toe. With camber there's more pressure on the inside, but the tire is rolling straight so the wear is minimal.

Alignment day, camber was ok. driver side -1.6 and pass. -1.3. Toe was about .7 out combined and I asked for and received half a degree toe in each wheel so I happy with outcome.

I got mine done a little bit ago. My tire was definitely negative toe on one wheel. I'm really happy with the alignment, considering I didn't have camber plates. The car feels noticeably better and more predictable.
