I would think it is to bring awareness that drones are going to be part of our daily life and they can be used safely. Just as the article states. "There’s no question about it: Drones are here to stay. Whether they’re being used for mapping, inspections, deliveries – or even recreation – the utility of these flying robots is now well beyond question."
