Why the emphasis on hitting people? The issue is midair with full scale aircraft, especially airliners. If a Mini Cooper is traveling at 22 MPH into an airliner it would be a fender bender. They are not registering toys because they are afraid of them hitting people. In fact the FAA can do nothing about that.
