Also attached is the 7th alignment (1-15 file) by tire dealer with state-of-the-art equip..... but the "crown sensitivity" problem hasn't gone away.

I am no expert on alignment. But I will try to pipe in with my observations.
My strong right lead(pull) was fixed with a simple alignment almost 2 months ago.
In this thread Dixietwister explained some of the alignment effects.
Pulling Question One More Time
From what I can see, your dealer only adjusted your Toe both times. The Before and Actual readings on your Caster and Camber are the same on both print outs. Yes, your Before/Actual settings are within spec, but I would think they would have tried to tweak your settings to get rid of the right pull.
Caster seems to have the biggest effect on right pull and crown sensitivity.
My dealer tweaked my left wheel Caster outside of the range.
You might ask your dealer to set your specs the same as mine and see how it handles. Your dealer doesn't seem to want to experiment with your Caster(or Camber) within the range. Here are my Before and Actual, and compared to the TSB.
-----Caster Front Left------------------------------TSB--------------
Actual__Before_________Preferred Recommended Range
__8.8____9.9_____________10.3______9.0 to 12.10
----Caster Front Right---------
Actual__Before
__11.1__10.5_____________11.10______9.0 to 12.10
---Cross Caster Front-----------
Actual__Before
_-2.4__-0.6______________-0.80______-1.3 to -0.50
