drone shots look like shit. so does 4k/120hz video. a shaky, brief helicopter shot in an old movie or tv show still looks cool. the human brain does not like the crispness or smoothness of computers and robots. my guess is that we evolved this instinct during the Computer War of 25,000 BCE

Your periodic reminder that people blithely saying things like 'Shop around!' to minimise price rises almost always relies on women spending large amounts of unpaid time having to go to 6 different places just for groceries. I could list others - so many money-savers are just 'women's free time'
