I think there's a balance - less potential inflammation on the US Public side as well as propaganda (unless you count the
Sentinel) but more anger over additional flights caused by an emboldened leadership, as brought up in the article.
One fault I found with the series is that there are a couple of references to the A-10 being cheaper to buy; much as I like the A-10 buying new ones isn't an option, so I view it as sort of a false argument.
The big take-away for me is confirmation that the drones require MUCH more infrastructure that is not lumped into the quoted costs for the system.
