I told you where I received the manufacturing specifications for toe from both Alko and Dexter. They build the axles to meet that spec and their quality control checks for it.
You earlier claimed "trailer axles have a toe setting built in from the factory...the toe adjustment can be out of spec if you install the axle tube backwards."
I wouldn't have called that a "toe setting built in," as 0 degrees is obvious. But you then backed off that claim, saying "Yes the target for toe is 0 degrees."
Stuff gets bent, so they provide an acceptable range should stuff need to get rebent back into alignment. 2 of the 3 ranges were such that turning the axle backwards wouldn't make a difference.
