You are probably right, but I would argue the exact opposite if it is protested .

Too many rules against movable aero aids.

To support your thoughts , the fan on the Brabham BT46 was 51% for cooling.
To oppose your thought, it still amazes my that the mass damper on the Renault R26 was considered an areo aid.
