Nerys: More like 60% of spoilers are for looks, almost all being OEM spoilers. I could find at least 200 spoilers in 5 minutes that are made for real downforce.
But that's just another example of ecomodder's heads in the sand to reality... Narrow-mindedness is not a good thing.

but I swear I read somewhere of a car that had lift issues making it "light" ie dangerous under certain conditions so they added a spoiler not to create down force but to "disrupt" the airflow to kill any generated lift.

That would be an "active" spoiler, which many cars have today, since automakers do know that lift is an issue to safety, which is a common fact that
some people here seem to think is fiction...
Quite honestly, I'm laughing my rear off at the sheer ignorance of that, and that they then claim to be a "gearhead." A "Wannabe" is a more accurate description!
