Running wider or lower offset wheels increases the rear track, and a wider front track compared to rear is generally an advantage on a FR car when done in moderation.
When doing anything serious in motorsports, 3* is a minimum for our front suspensions, especially if there isn't much RC correction.

A lot of guys don't run much camber to have TONS of camber out of the leading wheel at full lock, this is beneficial to a certain extent, because it will "lift" up that corner of the car, putting more weight on the opposite end, resulting in more rear bite.

Your first point is for the most part a myth. Tilting the tops of the coils inwards doesn't do much when the wheel is nearly parallel with the axis you're moving the coil.
Also, I don't think lifting the front of the car really helps rear traction, but I need to do a little more studying as to the dynamic weight transfer.
I know when static corner balancing a car, the more you raise one point on the car, the more weight is on THAT corner.
