You're right... Sorry

The bushing you are thinking of is only a 1-axis joint, Polybronz work perfect there.
Wrong!! As the hub travel describes an arc, the outer bearing cannot be a 1-axis joint. Just look lift your 911 and look at it from behind: A lot of positive camber. This would not be possible, when travel would be straight

PS: But Polybronze works fine, yes. In thise case the spring plates are bending and compensates the angle
