I wouldn't sweat the nitrogen, but go along with everything else.

I get my alignment done at a speed shop that does regular repair work as well, they don't charge me any more for a custom alignment than they do for a traditional one. Doesn't bat an eye if you ask for -3.5 degrees of camber.

BTW, I don't know where your guy's computer is getting it's specs from, but the factory specs for the rear are as follows. Any request for a setting within that range should be considered fairly normal. Sounds like he just dialed it to the nominal setting, which is what most repair shops are trained to do.

Camber:
Minimum -2.16
Nominal -1.67
Maximum -1.17

Total toe-in:
Minimum 0.09
Nominal 0.15
Maximum 0.21
