Default Wax on sunroofs

Isn't that advice just so that rain will wet the windscreen and allow
wipers to sweep it away smoothly, leaving a continuous film of water,

greasy in wet weather, and perhaps interfering with the driver's
vision? I doubt if it matters with a sun roof.

On the occasional use of a spinning brush car wash, with all the
trimmings, I find that afterwards the windscreen has to be cleared of
the wax with a good scrub of detergent. I find the problem with a waxed
windscreen is in very light rain when using the wipers in single sweep
intermittent mode. The windscreen never appears completely clear.
