"but the idea that they'd suddenly abandon their cultures and languages of origin en masse is - uh - an idea that rings hollow."
Good, because they don't. They still all have their own cultures. Heck, some of them outright reject Krakoa. The mutants are not a monolith.
Krakoa also realizes that what the Quiet Council is doing is bad and so does Xavier, eventually resolving the *dissolve* the Quiet Council. A lot of what you are talking about is *intentional* story problems that are focused on in different books.
"except that Hickman being Hickman, he didn't go back far enough to explain what Arakkii society was grounded IN except for violence, or what the circumstances and needs that shaped its culture were, aside from ceaseless violence."
Ewing did. X-Men Red is ALL about the differences in Arakki culture and how it was shaped and formed by a thousand years of war and violence and pain.
