people are annoyed because the majority a lot of drone users dgaf about rules.
multiple times just in the last few months I've seen people flying drones directly in front of the no drones signs on the Kanc.

Right, and I absolutely understand a appreciate that sentiment, but attacking one dude on the internet who can immediately provide proof that he wasn't breaking any rules is not an effective solution, nor is it a good look.
Nothing is going to change until the WMNF rangers actually do something about people who don't follow the rules.
I, however, have the map that I posted the link to, downloaded on my phone, and reference it any time I go anywhere near the WMNF, just to make sure I'm not that guy. Also I generally don't fly my drone around people anyway, and if I do, I always ask first, and no one has told me to fuck off yet, especially if I offer to take their picture and email it to them.

Curious. Why are there no drone zones? Is it because of potential loss/crashing of drone someplace unaccessible?

pretty sure it's just because they are super annoying and also disturb wildlife.
same reason you can't ride dirt bikes or snowmobiles not in designated areas.
