Default I don't completly understand the shifting thing but

basically if you lower your car to much the insides of your tires will wear much faster. It's just a fact of life with the A4

Default Shifting the subframe...think of it like a see saw...

You can tip one side down, but then the other side goes up. It's a balancing act. You can never bring both sides up or down at the same time. So, if you have negative camber on both sides, you can adjust so that you have the same amount of negative camber on both sides (balanced), but you can not get rid of the negative camber.
