I can understand it's probably for aerodynamics, but it's very possible someone may try to raise the wipers without knowing the procedure and damage them.
Is this how it is for all BMW's? What about Mercedes,Audi, Lexus?

On Lexus vehicles you have to pull the wiper arm up in order focus put them in snow mode, which allows you to raise the wipers (which is why so many Lexus vehicles are driving around with the wipers in a weird position instead of the park position, owners don’t know that you have to push the driver wiper arm down in order to put them in park position)...At first you may think your going to break the wiper arm but your not it requires some force..And if you don’t put them in “Snow” Mode then you will scratch the paint off the edge of the hood....(I know becuase my parents 12’ ES has the paint scratched off the edge of the hood near the wiper arms).
