Seriously though, you're wrong about lift not reducing drag.

What Compare a pickup with a tonneau to one with an aero cap. The aero cap is creating lift that a tonneau doesn't, because of the angle, but of course it's also decreasing drag. Similarly, a rear "diffuser" reduces drag by adding taper, but also creates downforce.
