The air dam also allows you to better manage the air that enters/goes around the nose and its path. Small changes can alter the lift/downforce difference. But thats just my guess.
Umm that was a FAIL on my point...

I was speaking directly too the spliter on the orange CRX and the angle it has along with the openings.

I agree with you on everything else.

It my understanding that something like a splitter doesn't actually create downforce, it simply (can) reduce drag and reduce lift.
