Because as you jack up one corner, in this case the front left, it causes the car to roll or tip over, while loading up the opposite corner. The fact that the rear right maintained 0 camber while the chassis was rolled over meant that i was actually seeing a negative camber gain.

This was confirmed after the first test, my rear tire wear was showing me just a little bit of too much negative camber.
You do still want negative camber gain on the rear. This helps with side bite in drift and grip in normal cornering as well. You just want less of it than what a normal low s-chassis has, as it becomes a very steep curve. Zero rear toe means you weren't taking advantage of anywhere near the grip you could have with some static toe in.
