Proof of concept- If you exhale, the carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other materials that form your breath would need to move, otherwise you would asphyxiate. That movement can be classified as wind, therefore wind exists.

Concerning the reference to your other question, there is no such a location. Consider the surface. Usually we assume the surface is fixed, which is fine over solid land. Because of this, there must be drag on the atmosphere. This drag slows the wind down. Since the air closest to the ground is slower than the air a bit further from the ground, there must be shear. Therefore shear is unavoidable.

For this entire monologue, I have spoken only on the small scales. It is worth noting that on the larger scales, that your linked question is true. A feature of geostrophic theory is the existence of Taylor columns. The Great Red Spot on Jupiter can be considered an example of such a Taylor Column (Ingersoll 1969).
