That is for sure the biggest thing, why drone? Using drones doesn't have any benefit let alone the potential downsides. I guess maybe using them for closer recon for where best to send the planes isn't the worst idea.
I think a decent amount of people think of technology like it works in civ or like Pokémon evolutions, manned plane is lower on the tech chain than drone so when drone is unlocked it replaces all your plane units with drones and drones are better than planes in every category. It seems to be a very linear and fatalistic fantasy. Technology is just applied science and it's silly to believe that the end result of newer science is gonna replace our already existing solutions to already solved problems. Scientists aren't working on solved problems.
I wanna play some of those kinda games but also my job is incredibly logistics based. Working expo in a kitchen is amazingly similar to playing Papers Please but also cooking. Sorta enjoying solving these kinda things under pressure is why I'm good as hell at it but it means I'm less inclined towards it in my free time
