Inevitably they will be behind someone with a large order or with something they don't have already prepared and get a delay, so from a time perspective the drive-thru is a terrible choice. Chick Fil-A isn't the only place I've seen people make horrible time trade-offs by being in the drive-thru, but I think it's the worst (i.e. longest lines of cars).
