They don't drag on my non-stick pans, and why would one use a silicone whisk on
anything else?

That is purely a function of the type of whisk. Use the right whisk and there's
no problem. Use a spherical whisk into a corner of smaller radius and there's a
problem.

It's a set of three spherical whisks of varying sizes, so I'll save my
money.
Thanks.

If that's your primary concern, you should be able to get a synthetic flat whisk
for five or six dollars from Oxo or othermakers. They get right into the
corners. That's what I use for making scrambled eggs.
