I prioritize getting as much camber as I can at the lower mount rather than the camber plate. Doing it this way gives you a more beneficial SAI, which IMO outweighs the benefits of getting more camber from the top mount (and there are some positive effects including the effect on scrub radius like you've said).

You'll notice a lot of strut based motorsports-level cars including the STI Nurburgring racecar I crawled all over and under has (roughly) center fixed location top mounts and got it's camber at the lower mount. Some of it is application dependent.

Still can't go nuts with wheel offset and spacers, but for less than -2 degrees of negative camber and a 10mm spacer it's not going to make toooo much of a difference either way.
