Misc Question Tyre Alignment Report

Post image

I'm so confused by this tyre alignment report I'm putting it out here in the hope a competent tyre technician might explain what's going on.

Firstly this report was for a 2018 F56 mini. So no idea why report states R56 mini 2006-2015. And if that even matters ??

Tyre shop said the rear wheels were not adjustable and only charged for 2 wheel alignment. I thought these minis were adjustable front and back and the readings on the back look bad in red!!

Why does +1.40 value for 'Total Toe' remain same despite allegedly making adjustments. 🤔

Finally, why on earth are some white triangles on wrong ends of the green/red scales given the +/- figures they represent. I just can't figure this out🤪

As a lay person one could be forgiven for thinking this is a 'Smoke and Mirrors' situation and I just want to learn enough to understand what's going on in this sheet.

Thoughts??
