The way they're used there isn't much time for that. With regular drones they hunt around for something to kill and then dive in. The wired drones stay hidden until the target comes into range and then they just come out for the strike. The defenders only have a few seconds to react.

Wire guided missiles have been in use since WWII.
Markus Reisner has a pretty good explanation of how they're deployed in one of his videos.
They have much shorter range so they basically set them up as ambushes. The wired drone gets hidden somewhere at a choke point. An other operator flies a recon drone at long range. When they report that a good target has come into range the wired drone takes off and hits the target.
Your post completely ignore my first and main sentence.
It's the timing that makes you an asshole, not your sentiment.
Israel is currently engaging in genocide. I know it. The UN knows it. Dogs know it.
Timing matters. I have family in Austria. I like a lot of things about Austria and I also don't approve of a lot of things the government does and did.
If someone were to have voiced that sentiment loudly in 1942, they'd probably be an asshole.
They do work. They've been using them to blow up tanks.
