Criticisms of Weil's notion of collectivities?

[achre]

Only a few more days until the exam and this board is as dead as ever - but no matter, I've got a question that probably no one will see:
What are some criticisms of the idea that collectivities provide for the needs of the soul? I've found that Weil being very vague makes it hard to criticise her, as I seem to be able to explain most conventional criticisms of her away. All I could come up with for this one is that some collectivities actively seek to malnourish your soul, such as criminal gangs, but it seems to me that those same gangs are providing for the needs of their member's souls. Other than that, maybe her analogy of the cornfield isn't strong enough? But that doesn't seem like an argument as much as it is a clarifying point.

Yes, I have very dopey evaluations on hand but I think they will do for the purposes of the task...:
- In the 21st century (due to globalisation etc), it is questionable whether collectivities are unique ---> May not warrant the respect Weil asserts
- There exist numerous examples of humans who are not 'rooted' in any collective, who appear to flourish (I have businessmen who travel around a great deal but idk)
- Introverts who have little interest in collective living may suggest humans do not inherently require the collective for fulfilling needs
