the part you stated .. "rotation should not be necessary if the suspension is working properly"
FWD cars are known to eat up the fron tires because they do everything. Turn, 75% of brakeing & also 100% of acceleration. Thus they eat up front tires ESPECIALLY if driven agressively!!
AWD car are usually also known to go throught he fronts quicker then the rears for similar reasons as above. 75% brakeing, 100% of turning & ??% of acceleration.
RWD especially mid engine cars can be the most even on wear however many times they have different size tires front vs rear :)
That being said, I do not see how you could of rotated to much. If they are cupping on just the inside of the tire then there must be a alignment issue. If the dealership isn't helping try looking at some of the soobie forums, I am sure someone else has a similar problem
