Duck tail question

I know a duck or whale tail offers better handling at higher speeds but does it have any other advantage other than looks?
Better engine cooling maybe?

I have seen it speculated that the duck helps cooling, but haven't noticed a significant difference since my install.

It is very cool looking though!

Mark, I was bummed when you had to sell your E, but I must say you bounced back pretty damn well. Nice car.

Thanks Tom. That was a real bad time for me. You guys were a great support. I've been really blessed since the troubles though.
