It's brought up because he said the Aliens in Aliens are a hivemind and others said they weren't. He then described how they were, and it fits well within a legitimate definition.
Rather than refute it properly by saying this hivemind is the collective intelligence, they attacked him for using a valid definition they disagreed with.
He is wrong about what kind of hivemind is in this game, but right about ants and bees.
Do you see what I mean?
Which bring me back to my point that I state earlier. Don't bring in context that could be confused such as ant/bee hive mind vs in-game hive mind.
I don't disagree with the valid definition of ant/bee variantion Hive Mind. Just better off not mixing different context in the first place.
