I think the real danger to innocent life is if the drone isn't sufficiently effective. There are some advantages to pulling the pilot from the cockpit, but you're not replacing the pilot, you're just changing where he sits. Off the top of my head, the two main advantages to that are no G's and pilot survivability (cost of airframe figures in there too, but I don't know if that cost is a swing factor).
