Except remember the angle of that particular appendage is designed to generate more downforce than reduce Cd.
If it were level, or even angled slightly down (retaining a sharp cutoff), then there's more of a chance flow would reattach and separate cleanly, leaving a smaller wake.
Ford actually added something similar to the hatchback version of the car:
They could have done the equivalent to the notchback too.
