"This single example seems to highlight the difference between simple stimulus/response, and abstract concept comprehension that might allow a bee to "care" about the implications of a disturbance, and react more tactically."

I suggest that before we discuss honey bees reactions we should read the book, "The Mountain People" by Colin M. Turnbull.  This book illustrates how inhuman humans can become with the proper political pressure.  I see no difference between the above bee behavior and documented human behavior.
