Default Alignment issues after accident

So I hit a curb with the car And here is the issue

The right rear was among the affected parts

I asked them to do the performance alignment I use for autox

They had it on the alignment rack after the repairs were done and handed me this sheet that had the following for the right rear

Initial camber -2.6
Initial toe 1deg in

Final camber - 1.7
Final toe .05deg in

Yet the guy claims that -1.7 is the most negative camber he can dial in and .05 is the most toe in he can get on that side

further the guy claimed that I wont notice the difference in alignment left to right when there is a .5 difference in camber and a .1 difference in toe.

Does it sound like he knows what hes doing and there is a more serious issue that needs to be addressed, or does it sound like he has no idea what hes doing...

Ronnycage is putting it on his alignment rack friday to look at it, and see if he can do better. But if the first shop is right, what could cause this?
