You should not need to drain for kube-proxy, it is not saving any state that it can't fix on fly. Kubelet doesn't save much/any state YET, but it might in the future. Draining updates of kubelet are a hugely simplifying assumption, and frankly will dodge a whole class of potential live-update issues. I don't know if we have a requirement for that or just a recommendation.
