The upper and lower ball joints have to be aligned or the steering hub would bind up. Swapping the left to right sides should not affect caster either as the hub spindles also have to be in the same pivot line as the ball joints or the steering would either load up badly or bump steer uncontrollably depending what side of the pivot line the spindle is located. The thing that will kill this idea off is if the steering hub assemblies are different in reference to the distance between the ball joints. Closer will increase camber dramatically, further will do the opposite (read as 'scary bad handling')
If Dropped has tried this out and proven it to fail then we've all learned something thanks to his investigation and saved some people time and cash.
