Drones and Archetypes

[Looooooong]

This is probably a dumb question with an answer I overlooked. Since drones appear to be treated as having a class, specifically drone, and have things like class skills due to their features, can a drone have an archetype? I imagine the answer is no, but I haven't found any concrete evidence for yes or no

No. Drone is not a class, and there are no definitions of what features would be lost for the various level archetype abilities.

Drones have their own "class" link in Archives of Nethys.

That doesn't mean they have a class, it's just a choice that the website designers made.

Actually this question came from the core rule book pg 74, first entry on Drone Base Statistics,

"Class Level: This is equal to your mechanic level. If you
have the control net class feature and assign fewer levels
to your drone than you have, the drone’s base statistics are
determined by the level you assign to it.

["Dr." Cupi]

Class level is reference to the level of the class that gives you the drone. The drone itself does not have a class.
