Updated Alignment Specs

Updated Alignment Specs
I just had an alignment done on a 70K 05 3.0 x sport w/ DSC all factory with new Pirelli PZero Nero 225/40/ZR 18 92Y at the dealer. I have been following the camber issue here. The specs that I have seen here and on my 08 AND 06 v. 2012 have changed:
Factory Spec:
FRONT
2008 report/ Front Camber -1.0 to - 0.0 degrees
2012 report/ Front Camber -1.3 to -0.2 degrees
2008 report/ front Toe -0.13 to 0.03 degrees
2012 report/ Front Toe -0.15 to 0.05 degrees
2008 report/ front caster 2.0 to 3.0 degrees
2012 report/ front caster 1.5 to 3.0 degrees
REAR
2008 report/ Rear Camber -0.2 to -1.2 degrees
2012 report/ Rear Camber -0.1 to -1.5 degrees
2008 report/ REAR Toe -0.04 to 0.21 degrees
2012 report/ REAR Toe -0.03 to 0.23 degrees
I find it interesting that these numbers are a moving target. It appears Jag Engineers are still collecting data on drivability issues. My question:
Since the specs are changing, is there a new flash for the DSC to compensate for the new specs?
Are there different specs for the sport v. the Non-sport?
Here are my specs from the 2012 report: SEE IMAGE
To summarize my understanding of corrective actions necessary to correct camber issues are:
Front: Sub Frame Adjustment
Rear: New Lower Front Control Arm
Comments welcome on my report (see attachment) and general camber issues including new specs ( I have read and did a search here)
