We should get more bottom end in traditional theory but it probably depends on all the other aspects of the cam profile.

Yep.  In general, that's the idea - more low end torque though sometimes it will increase torque output across the cam's usable RPM range.

Gnarly - plug a cam in to your dyno sim program straight up, then advance it 4 or 6 or 8 degrees and watch what happens.

Here's one LCE cam that has 8 degrees of advance ground in. Their website lists all the lobe position specs for their cams and there are several other grinds with varying amounts of advance ground in.
