Spoilers Pluribus

Note: all of my points above can and hopefully will be addressed by a clever twist in the story. It seems to me likely that, given how many holes there are in the Hive Mind's story, the other shoe will drop and explain a lot of stuff that increasingly makes no sense. For instance, maybe the Hive Mind is prohibited from all the stuff it says it is, but whatever is behind it has no such compunctions and can override the Hive Mind when necessary.

I certainly hope so. I’ll admit I stumbled hard on the “can’t pick fruit” as well. That’s not killing, that’s the equivalent of giving someone a haircut.
 

Mowing the lawns, pulling weeds? The infrastructure isn’t going to last long under those circumstances. Think kudzu weeds. Which will lead to more dying as it decays and hinders distribution.
