Yes, I'm serious. As someone who thinks nothing of near-misses involving drivers dozens/hundreds of times daily with a head-on speed differential of >100 MPH missing by _feet_ , I understand the concern for impact yet still scratch my head over the angst indulged over a single miss by _miles_.

Why would a pilot be distracted by a drone?

On my next to last landing at my home airport, I was warned of "remote controlled aircraft" on the final approach path, 1.5 miles from the runway. At that point on a 3* approach path, I'm a little over 400' above the touchdown zone and the land rises slightly in this direction, so I'm a little under 400' above ground.

Care to guess whether that was a zero or non-zero distraction as I passed the affected area?

How is your average drone different from birds? Non-zero doesn't mean worth mentioning.

Many birds have eyesight and a dive response to approaching aircraft.

Most drones have cameras and operators (which also have eyesight).

Great. So we just need the instinctual dive response and we should be good...
