Of course I can't find a pic now but I remember browsing through a Corvette parts catalog back in the early 80's they had a rear wing that had two little indents so you could set your drink down near the outside corners. LOL Wish I could find that picture.

I thought that shelf was for downforce, to keep the trunk from opening while driving?

I like them.They push the body closer to the streamline flow pathway.
The car pictured could also use a shelf mid-way up the backlight and also extending back until it intersected the imaginary streamline flow pathway.Like Ford kinda did with the Sierra concept and Merkur XR4Ti.
They create the locked-vortex that the outer flow skips over as if it were a solid surface.
