And it allows you to run camber bolts, which are better than changing camber on the hat (as this changes SAI at the same time).
Actually, adjusting camber at the knuckle does affect your scrub radius. I am a firm believer that camber bolts should never be run on a car, they are weak and a piss-poor solution that is much better solved with the top hat. Where did you get this notion that adjusting camber at the top hat is "bad"? You change steering axis (or the wheels relation to the axis) either way, and the added negative camber of adjusting at the top mount far outweighs any "negative" side effects of a few degrees of steering axis change.
