Default "whale tails" or cavitation plate foils

So, a buddy and I were talking -- he said I wasted my money on trim tabs. I
said I did not.

The conversation revolved around the use of whale tails (foils on the
cavitation plate).

I said that they could help; but would add stress to the outdrive, and if
something that simple really helped, manufactures would make their cavitation
plates larger.

What's the general opinion on them?
