So we'd have something new, less than one unified mind but more than a group of totally separate minds working together.

Ja.  If we consider MBrain nodes analogous to a synapse, the big/slow restrictions apply.  But if we consider it something entirely new, with something other than collected inputs and one output, then the analogy breaks down.  We don’t know how that community will behave, the organism somewhere between one brain and a community (of individual brains with very limited bandwidth communications.)
