I'm hoping future iterations will have a bit more negative angles for the back foot. if they at least had -6º I would be down to try them... but only -3º is not enough for me.
I think both bindings can rotate 21° outwardly and 3° inwardly. So, on your back foot, you can go -21 but only +3. I think the way they wrote it in the '26 catalog is just a mistype, they wouldn't make specific back and front bindings because of goofy/regular.
This is the right binding (and would be my back foot since I'm regular) and it shows more than -3:

I tested the Source FC and the Source Pro on a Mega Death, it was incredible!!

The back def goes more than -6*. It's more of the extreme posi/posi crowd that won't like these. I believe the limits are -3* to +21* front and +3* to -21* rear
Here is a video I put together to visualize the possible stance angles.
Loved that episode. Wish we could see some specs or something! Weird that it's releasing this fall but isn't in the catalog. "Powder freestyle" always grabs my attention.

If that's the case I think I will try a set for sure. I did think it would be weird that Union would make bindings without negative angles on the back foot since that is more their lane than say Jones with whom I could see only -3º on the back being something they would do.

he was still dialing in prototypes up until mid winter, I believe, but imo they could have at least teased it Mystery style.
