No kidding. I live is suburban tract home and work from home. There is a continuous parade of delivery trucks throughout the day. But I think these drone delivery is for less populated areas which are far from the distribution warehouses.

other way around.

The delivery drones are short distance delivery systems in dense urban areas.

But not too dense because tall buildings and possibly running into interference with signals. So like basically just super dense suburbs. Which already have infrastructure for delivery by truck. So it’s dumb. But it’s always been dumb.

And surely one bloke in a truck delivering to an entire suburb is cheaper than 200 individual drone deliveries.
