In real life, RWD or AWD, knuckles + adjustable bushings, you are not getting anywhere close to -2 deg. You'd still max out at about -1.2 deg one side and more on the other side but would set it at -1.2 equal (powerflex, superpro offerings).
That may not sound like much but when you think and compare in terms of -0.5 vs -1.2 it is a noticeable difference. They do change the way the car handles. They are great, cheap and easy to install and adjust. I do think they are still within a safety margin, and I've never heard of anything failing due to that kind of modification. I used 3 powerflex and 1 superpro camber-adjustable bushings, never had a problem.
For a track car camber plates are usually the way to go, obviously, but for a daily driver... having used camber plates on my other cars, I do think they are an overkill and unnecessary (for DD) when you can only do the bushings.

Sorry but I got -2 on each side from the Kmac bushings..
