Chemical weapons aren't banned because they're effective, but because a) the way they kill is so cruel b) they kill indiscriminately. Cluster munitions are banned by some countries (notably not including the US, China, Russia and India) because they leave UXO that is likely to explode later, killing or maiming civilians. Just like the other examples (e.g. machine guns), I don't see drone swarms getting banned. Slaughterbots will be a documentary one day.
