It’s a brilliant idea, you should pitch this on “Shark Tank”
Look how much some guy made with post it notes.
Some cars were made with wipers that sort of disappeared. They retracted well below sight.
I don’t know how well that might have protected the rubber, or whether anyone has studied the matter to see whether such cars worked better in the desert climate.
It’s just something that people start thinking about long after it’s too late to design away the problem.
