it seems pretty de-escalatory to me at the moment. but it could easily descend into millions of drones and robot dogs getting launched into neighboring territories.

Cops are equally terrified. The feds recently upped funding around the country for counter drone equipment but it's slow moving. They are getting better at detection and intervention at the operator level. I think Seattle for the world cup caught something like 98% of unauthorized drones during world cup. Some how they quickly identify them and use officers and their own drones to catch whoever the operator is. But... that's during a major planned event with a saturation of cops on the ground. A regular Mariner game isn't getting that.
It doesn't even take an actual explosive on a drone. Just a bag of flour would send people into a panic and tons would die just getting trampled.

most non-state actors don’t have large quantities of explosives at their disposal. countries like Ukraine and Iran always had the explosives, just not the delivery systems (or they were so expensive that they were cost prohibitive). No longer.
