Poor wiper lifting design

Who else's F30 has the problem of the driver's side windscreen wiper arm rubbing along the back edge of the hood when you lift it off the windscreen?

Please note, I place the wipers in the 'lift off windscreen' mode first. Then I gently lift each arm up and away.

The arm assembly literally touches the hood and has caused paint damage. Who allowed such a stupid design and assembly to pass through BMW's 'rigorous' checks? Looks like it fell through the cracks as I'm my opinion, it wasn't checked at all.

Perhaps your car's arm has some clearance from the hood. Can you please let me know. Thanks.
