With this in mind: (out of curiousity)
Which way would you move the alaquot on this SSM in the F5 area of the board 
where negative bearing was measured with the intent of reducing negative 
bearing - the string slopes up toward the alaquot from the bridge.
Could doing this eliminate the minimal available crown of about 1mm that was 
measured?
Could an added response possibly be that the positive front bearing at the 
top treble part of the bridge would increase?
