And a 1.5" grade 8 fender washer 4mm thick is still much bigger than that hole. Are you suggesting that a bolt w/ a big old washer on it that doesn't even see longitudinal load is somehow going to pull through that hole?
Let me put it this way: as long as the camber bolt can properly seat, and is strong enough to generate the necessary clamping force, it's not going to fail any more easily than the OEM bolt. Or more correctly, if it fails it's because you just crashed the car into something hard enough that you're probably going to be more concerned with bent rims, bent control arms, and deployed airbags than your alignment being out a little because the camber bolt slipped.
Besides, you can just put the aftermarket camber bolt in the lower holes for gross adjustment and use the OEM in the upper for fine tuning if you're so worried about that upper hole size.
