Thanks, Brian. No, this has nothing to do with airfoils or lift. The
"airplane wing" model doesn't hold here. Drag, lift, etc. are not
relevant. The ONLY effect we need to produce is to deflect the
oncoming wind as far outward as possible.

Got it. Lift isn't relevant - just deflecting as much air mass as
possible. :-)
