Can't Psionically Assimilate Hive Minds - Bug or WAI?

[Foolswalkin]

I have Transcendence and have just integrated a Hive Mind Vassal. My intended goal was to assimilate them via Trascendent Awakening, given that I meet their assimilation requirement per the wiki:

https://stellaris.paradoxwikis.com/Population_modification#Assimilation

However, when I try to set their I'm getting a note that says "Hive Minds cannot develop psionic powers" and they're all set to be purged despite setting purges to prohibited. So that's something like 800 influence, 80 dead pops, and a whole lot of resettling and regrowing for me. Please advise - I still feel very new at the game 80 hours in and am willing to believe there's a lot I'm overlooking, but the tooltip seems pretty clear.

Did you change the citizenship for them?

Hive minds can't be intergrated unless you are a hive mind.
Otherwise they just die.
If you are fast enough you might be able to bio mod the hive mind status off, I 'think' that can be done.

I don't know the deal with hive minds and Psi, but given hive minds can't be spiritual and psi was linked to spiritual originally, that sounds likely also.

Have you read the link?

Yes, I read the link, never seen that option in game though, so *shrug* But I do know that unless you get the hive mind status off the pops one way or another, they die.

Well, it shows how to get it off...

The only way you can integrate hive minded pops is to have completed the genetic ascendency perks.

That allows you to remove the hive mind trait.

Like wise, genetically ascended hive minds can integrate other species into their hives by adding the trait.

So... wiki is wrong, then. Was this ever an option and is out now, a planned option that hasn't been implemented yet (I thought I saw somewhere that it was added in 1.8, but that was before my time), or a bug?

Anyone who ever done this successfully want to weigh in?

I have not tried with hiveminds but psionicly assimilation I have and it works basicly all it does is give other speceis the psionic trait

[Foolswalkin]

Which would be cool, but according to the wiki the other thing it does is remove the trait "Hive-Minded." This in turn led to me to wait to integrate my subject until I had Transcendence, and, having waited and spent a metric ton of influence, I'm a little peeved they're all dying.
