Better? Smaller? It's all I've got.

No lift in the rear, all it needs is a rake.
I am sorry, but crap CFD and a hand-drawn picture of what someone assumes is happening doesn't cut it in 2020 when we have techniques that allows us to show where there is attached and separated flow, and exactly how much lift is being created, all by some simple testing on the road.
