I have these concerns myself. They're all valid and I hope we'll get proper answers at ignite.
That said there will still be the ability to create normal site collections without the groups connection going forward. This creation is strictly controlled by IT so you can still have a robust primary site collection(s) with good information architecture design and governance.
However if that "new" button in the SharePoint site becomes a quick and easy way for users to create groups/sites as they like there will very quickly be massive sprawl concerns without some very basic reporting functionality to monitor and maintain (I'm thinking here a 1 click report that shows created groups/sites with no actions in 6 months)
