Both have elements of all of them but I think the primary influences are the main difference.
If that makes any sense.

I know nothing about grime, so the specifics of the possible genre splits are beyond me, but anyway... Drone originated with Earth, which was a band from the Seattle grunge scene, so originally it really wasn't a sub-genre of metal, but nobody questions whether Sunn O))) is metal. Granted, they, and many other drone bands, have introduced explicit metal influences, but a genre's origins don't necessarily dictate its present.
