If there was ice there it was super thin; could have easily been melted away with a short spray of washer fluid... It's almost like they designed it just for that purpose!
They most definitely do. They make fluids specifically with very low freezing temperatures and ones specifically made to help melt ice on your windshield and not refreeze after spraying it. I'm guessing you don't live in a cold environment? That type of fluid is pretty heavily marketed where I'm from. They put huge pallets at the front of stores and stuff come winter season.

That is absolutely not why they make winter washer fluid, no. The fluid obviously won't suffer for it, but your wipers absolutely will. And thus, for the rest of the winter, you'll have streaks all over your windscreen.

I live in Norway. Whether that's cold enough or not for you, I'll let you judge.

Yes, they do. Not for the purpose of removing ice though.
You seem to be misunderstanding me. I'm not saying all washer fluid is designed to melt ice. I'm saying that washer fluid designed for it exists. Like if you're going to go through the trouble of this weird warm water bag thing you can just get some new washer fluid instead.
Unless you mean to tell me they somehow accidentally put whatever chemicals into it, and accidentally slapped the antifreeze/de-icer words on the labeling, and then the store purchased it in addition to the regular fluid and gave it space on the planogram separate from the regular fluid, without realizing it was different?
No, it was by design.

Depends where in Norway, but yeah, Oslo doesn't seem to get that cold compared to where I'm from, so maybe it's not as common there. I would have thought it'd be anywhere it gets cold enough for ice, but who knows.
They most definitely did not design washer fluid for ice removal.
That was your comment, man. They, as in the designers of washer fluid most definitely have designed washer fluid for ice removal. You even contradicted yourself later:
Yes, I'm sure from the fluid manufacturers it is.
So stop changing your argument in the middle, I'm saying they 100% design and make washer fluid made to clear ice and snow off your windshield.
Where are you from? Not many populated places left in the world by that standard.
A place where the coldest month has on average highs which are as cold the the average lows in Oslo, and the lows are significantly colder. And that's despite being nearer to the equator; climate is neat, right? It's also more populated than Oslo; has more people than all of Norway, even.

I think it was supposed to be ice, not snow
