Most species are not a hive mind so I don't know why you think a hive mind would be good for humanity. That would stunt souls growth for centuries and we'll end up like those little grey men.
Well there are a bunch of reasons. To start with, society is ALREADY socially-driven. This is just the way it is, and the more we resist that (by claiming we are individual little flowers) the more we create an ego-trip for ourselves, which is destructive and divisive.
Another reason I think this is a good idea is because, like you said, we are already heading in that kind of direction. Perhaps it is the next step in our species' evolution.
As for the grey men, I didn't know they existed. o.O

I have the book but haven't read it fully (3 chapters in), why do you ask?
