Yep - I think you are right. These threads seem to be more beneficial to folks who use primarily bolt-on parts that are already designed and analyzed. I'm an engineer myself and designed and fabricated a complete new front end with cup car parts so I had to know enough to get close with all of the changed geometry. That said, the math for sway bars is not that complex and there is a large benefit from having a good feel for how the numbers relate to the change in feel of the car. Almost any car will improve from some chassis tuning to match the driver technique.
Another very helpful tool is to get pictures of your car at the track so you can see obvious issues like an inside rear wheel lifting off, excess body roll, etc.
