Default Why don't wings have dimples 2

It's not that simple and straight forward.

What SIZE dimples?
Diameter?
Depth?
Located WHERE?


I thought that was the point of research project? Why do golf balls
have dimples in the size and geometry that they do and go from there.
Didn't the the old German Stork have a very rough surface in the nose
area? May thy knew something that we overlook?
