The "ten times more epoints" for capturing them alive made me laugh.

It sounds like a hot fix.

    It does make a bit of macabre logic. Capturing them takes a hell of a lot longer than just blowing them up. It also can take several drones.

    Say a drone team on their most effective day is eliminating 3-5 Russians. Spending a few hours to escort one across the front line for capture needs to be incentivized heavily.
