I agree in theory, but in practice there is. I don't have the exact numbers, but the 20mm drop from the Yellows was quite significant for camber, I think around 0.5-0.6.

No, you'd need camber bolts on the bottom as well. The top hole is 16mm, the bottom hole is 14mm. The stock top bolt has a 14mm thread and 16mm shoulder. Moving the bottom bolt to the top hole will be the same as a cammed camber bolt, just without the ease of adjustment. For the bottom hole you have to go aftermarket camber bolt (or potentially a smaller diameter bolt).
I found that the bottom hole gave more camber than the top hole. YMMV.
