It's not nearly far back enough to have a lever/fulcrum effect on the front. The MR2 is a mid-engine, rear drive car, so the back end is going to have more weight. Intertia dictates that the greater the mass, the more it resists change. Rear-heavy cars will tend to oversteer, meaning the back end will want to switch with the front when traction is lost (from slippery roads, for example). The same goes with front-engine, front wheel drive cars. They tend to understeer from the weight balance being in the front (except during high-speed corners while braking. The lighter rear plus braking will lead to rear-wheel traction loss, resulting in brake-induced oversteer, but it won't try to spin you around like a top.).

While I'm sure you have unlimited knowledge about exactly how a wing-type spoiler will hamper/degrade fuel efficiency

There's no call to be rude.

Not if you've got a solar-powered charger.
