My main point, that you have paraphrased, is that people should be skeptical about what is posted here.

This is the most important thing, chase the original references. I believe the person who wrote a paper more that the person who references the paper, and far more than the person who read it a while ago and thinks/believes it to be the case.
The thing is that the reference [9] , which I can't find either,
may have found that their spoiler on the roof increased lift in some way, maybe by stopping a boot lip spoiler or sculpted and lift reducing body after the hatch from working properly.

Note that no-one at the time said that the extract was obviously wrong

It may not be
wrong but it may be misleading, their findings
may show an increase in lift. But those results are
only useful in that specific scenario, which is not analogous to every car and probably not even representative and should never be taken as such.
