Not sure if I'm reading your tone correctly, but being pedantic an aerofoil shaped to produce a force perpendicular to the direction of travel (in this case a force normal to the ground i.e. downforce) with finite span is a wing.
Yeah. I don't know where these "no wings" comments come from. I see both front and rear wings. Now this doesn't have a wing:
Although I'd say your definition is incorrect. There's the
lifting body, which you can't call a wing. And the opposite of it, which is essentially the above Lotus 88. (With the addition of venturi effect)
