I'll give him the fact that the rest of the car is great, but I see no reason for having such a monstrosity. Do you think it's the best solution for whatever lift problem he was experiencing (that the rest of us aren't)?
(btw: this post isn't necessarily directed toward you, Max, and I applaud you for looking at both sides of the matter, but.....)

Here is Wael's response:
"That photo is deceptive...I had to get the shot in my narrow garage. Other than that, the car is far more neutral handling, far less understeer. I got the same wing from John Levy & Co. These guys actually push their cars and found good reason to have that wing. It actually works. Which is also why all the FD racecars have something along those lines, if they look at RX-7 magazine they'll see that too.

I didn't aske him whether I can submit this to the forum but I don't think he'll mind.
