"4. SAI
I don't even know what this stands for, much less its significance. 
Anyone?   Again, my corrected readings fall within the specified range, 
but the Left wheel has half a degree more SAI than the right.   Is this 
a problem?"

SAI usually stands for Steering Angle Inclination. This is kind of the 
equivalent to Caster except you are looking at the car from front to back 
instead of from the side. It is also called kingpin angle sometimes.
