The rear wiper blade on the Ford Focus II seems to be about 2" too short and when in use a wide untouched band is left at the top of the rear screen which is just where a tall person looks through.

Does anyone know of a larger suitable replacement ?

Measure it and buy a longer one at Halfords.

Just remember that the blade may be longer at both ends - so check the clearance at the bottom of the screen as well.

I went for a longer rear wiper blade on my Passat for the same reason.

So why do some manufacturers fit too smaller wiper blades rear/front ?

It seems such an easy thing for them to get right, I don't understand !
