Well at least the passengers and crew won’t doe when it crashes. Unfortunate souls on the ground? Collateral damage.

The biggest pro would be it can pull as many G’s as the airframe can stand, i.e., far more than a human can take. The biggest con is what happens if it’s hacked/jammed? No longer loyal/usable.

An elegant solution to the problem Boeing faces today.
I can picture a boardroom in Chicago with CEO and all his flacks: "Gentlemen and women, what are we going to do? Nobody wants to ride in our airplanes any more!"
So they made a plane nobody rides in.
