Also, how many times have you seen an over cambered FB be the result of a week Neck under the FB or due to an overly thinned FB. Is putting on a new FB a repair if it helps to strengthen the Neck because it can't be corrected in the Camber or is it still set-up because you didn't actually re-carve or put Graphite rods in the Neck?

I think this is largely a matter of semantics. IMO, Replacing a fingerboard, regluing a loose FB, or neck work are not part of the setup itself, although it is sometimes necessary to do these repairs
before a normal setup is possible.
