My passenger wiper looks kind of like that too. I also do not like to see the space below the wiper. However, I found that the size of the space is inconsistent. Sometimes, it is a lot smaller than your pic.

That looks a bit off to me. My wipers tend to pop up a little bit when I key the ignition off, but the wipers in that pic look to be a bit high if the car's on with the engine running.

It's definitely off. Probably needs a minor adjustment.

Mine have zero gap with the bottom of the windshield, however mine jump up just a tad to what looks like your position (and then back down) when I turn off the ignition for some reason.
