It’s no wonder. If the lower specs is the corrected one, if I read it right, you have 5 degrees of caster in the left front and 0 in the right front. A car will pull to the side of the least caster which in your case is the right

The before and after specs on the caster are the same- it was not touched?

Also, with the free suspension, alignment folks these days won't take it for a spin around the block and re-check the alignment. That needs to happen to get changes to settle. Me, I moved to setting the alignment myself after paying the second shop $250 to get it wrong, even after I warned them ahead of time. "It takes an hour to get it back on the table", they said. I asked, they said they could do a C4 and they didn't. More to it, but enough.
Do some research, consider doing yourself. It's not that bad.
