I am actually starting to think my higher cold pressures might be causing a vicious cycle where my front tires slide too much, which heats up the tires, which in turn increases the pressure and causes even more understeer.

Could be. Once you reduce pressure to your target after the first session, you should only have to drop each tire a few pounds at most following each subsequent session.
I would caution the second set of camber bolts. You're likely very close to contacting the spring perch with the tire as it is now.
If you every find your pressures extremely hard to control, you likely have moisture in the tires from the air compressor. If this happens, or you think it may help, pull the shrader valve on the valve stem, let the air drain, fill the tire without reinstalling the valve, repeat about 4 times. This will help to remove any moisture from the tire.
