Remember when Google brought us street view? How absurd of an ideas was photographing every street? Now we take it for granted. Is it so unbelievable that Amazon could push the boundaries the skeptics keep bringing up?
Photographing every street requires few new techniques. Mostly people didn't expect it could happen quickly or cost-effectively, or didn't expect it would be worthwhile. Arguably, it's still a neat-o factor rather than a core value.
Drone delivery requires a significant number of new techniques.
