Why did We Hear 5 Years Ago That Online Orders Would Be Delivered By Drone, And This Is Nowhere Near Happening Yet?

First off drone deliveries are real and are happening in limited areas in the US and other countries.
That being said its not easy to implement. Drones have limited range and carrying capacity, and can be blown around or grounded by harsh weather.
Drones have a bunch of FAA regulations on how high and how far they can fly limiting their range from the operator.
There are regulations on noise made by the drones.
Many times it might just be easier and cheaper to throw a box on a truck already heading that direction.
