i'm not questioning that the effect can exist in this situation, i'm simply stating that you won't see any benefits from any kind of thrust due to the drag from the high pressure area offsetting any thrust created

who said anything about diversion?
in fact with this set -up the air will have the tendency to stick more to the curved surface(of the coanda thing) ,thus creating less diversion to the ouside of the fender....double gain
