From what I've read a 10 or 12 percent downward angle on the "garnish" will net a +20% reduction in drag, but a +30% increase in lift. This is one of the reasons I never angled it down.
I would be interested if your "science" can measure this reported "lift", or at least graphically represent it.
I think for the most part your program underestimates the suction/flow of air though the small air gap between the end of the roof and the beveled leading edge of the wing. I do need to find a way to measure this alleged flow, smoke bomb in a coffee can on the roof?
