Default Right wiper clearance

This may be ticky tack, but with a car like this that would be concerned about parasitic drag, why does the right wiper stick up so far over the hood. Is mine out of adjustment or are there others like this?

They are all like that. I think it looks like crap, but some engineer at GM must not have been able to figure out how to hide this wiper.

Maybe we should try to pull it and reclock that side, it may not effect the wiping of the windshield and allow it to hide better.
