I know I should be doing endless hours of research before asking questions here however I did search quickly to no avail.. and honestly I always end up getting the exact info/advice I need directly from here anyways so here we go.

Recently had the FADA o-ring seal replacement due to leaking. They replaced.. re-aligned ("fixed" my rear camber unfortunately) and good to go.

Driving home I realized my Explorer was pulling left slightly. Picked up the truck after hours and was too far down to go back. Regardless...

Holding the wheel true straight.. it pulls pretty aggressively to the left. Holding the wheel about a degree or two to the right.. she'll drive straight as an arrow.

Attached is the original repair order.. followed by an alignment report done TODAY (roughly 1.5 months later). Camber/toe specs all seem about right.. the one that is off.. is off slightly.

Clearly.. the "steer ahead" is off and from googling what that is.. describes my problem accurately. My question is.. what can cause that to be off if every other spec is supposedly good?

Will be getting it realigned as soon as I can get in but love to have the knowledge from here as well.
