I agree that the arm and springs are probably the issue.
That being said, I have had, and seen, wind deflectors on CGT and URQ wiper arms.

To my knowledge some S4s came with deflectors on the arm, and some S6 came
with deflectors on the blade. The previous owner of my S6 gave me the
original blades with deflectors and I put new inserts in them.
The missed areas on the sweep are probably not caused by the lack of
deflectors but by a weakening spring or by the arm bending out of shape. I
performed the "Pipe wrench fix" on my driver's side wiper:
