I imagine a lot of people, like myself, are going this in a garage without the most precise measurements, and often late at night frustrated/tired.

I know when installing my Konis we did our best to only drill the hole out enough to work, but didn't having use the most precise tools/methods available since it was a job done in my buddy's garage. I could see where slight differences in how the upper strut mounts were drilled out could account for added camber.
Drilling of the top hats is only done in the rear.
The fronts use a bearing, so no drilling possible.
