Nice thread.
Now why not have a look at what would be the greatest use of a big floaty triangle silent airframe? currently off the top of my head: anti ballistic missile radar, anti mobile ICBM hunters, long duration passive AWACs style use... and of course, easy space access for covert payloads.
Why they come down to the ground? well, which ones are we seeing? manned? the unmanned ones? the space access ones? caught in a dipping gulf stream and its accidental?

Then why do they float so slow low to the ground?

Maybe going down to the ground is part of their mission and capabilities?
If I'd have to guess? Logistics (a billion dollar minivan) for special operations.
