Drones that don't accidentally kill toddlers and pets and create liability nightmares? Yes, considerably more expensive than a minimum wage delivery human.

But currently, delivery doesn't happen for anywhere near minimum wage. A fully-loaded UPS or FedEx driver probably costs $100k or close, and those trucks look pretty expensive...

Sure, but when a delivery man decapitates little Poppy, he's criminally liable, rather than the delivery company.
