I'm not sure I agree. My brown 87 has been like that since about 1992.
It will park on the bottommost setting of the stalk only.
I'd say the fix is... meditation? Chill out! You can live with it! Spend
the time you'd spend fixing this doing something important! figure on
changing the wiper motor when you've got the dash out to put in a new
heater core/ blower motor.
When you do pull the wipers out, take the shaft assemblies apart and put
in new grease. they dry out over the years. I've had several seize.
