drones are massively cheaper and per-unit also more effective than these other anti-tank weapons you mention.
Not really, tanks aren’t being taken out by your cheap and cheerful $400 fpv drones. They need something like a Lancet at minimum which Wikipedia tells me has a $35,000 (or $37,000 - i guess using different exchange rates?) export price which is actually a bit more than a Kornet ATGM at $26,000 (thanks again Jimmy Wales).
There is a huge range of drone between fpv drones and those complex loitering ammunition you mention. The ones most commonly mentioned and deployed by Ukraine against tanks, cost a few thousand at most.

An AT4 missile is about 3000 bucks, but tanks still exist.
A bullet is a few cents, yet soldiers are pretty popular in every conflict too.
It’s almost as if this is a shitty argument.
