Just a thought.
Good point brother. I see the confusion of the languages as a preventative first strike against godless technological advancement of some type, and GODLESS UNITY. It seems they wanted to build a massive TOWER of some sort—perhaps religious (to reach to heaven) and they wanted a CITY for commerce. They had a vision, they imagined great progress, but it was not God's plan it was THEIR HUMANISTIC PLAN, and God was not in it. So it seems that Satan already had influence over them and God was concerned about where this construction project would lead. As we can see from the rapid advance in human cloning and the nuclear bomb, human intelligence is amazing. Even in a cursed state, millions of human minds working in unison can be a dangerous thing... ("now nothing will be restrained from them"). It appears that Mankind needed an "intervention" to slow things down.

Since this time, modern man has been trying to create ONE WORLD and ONE PEOPLE out of many 24/7/365 days a year, and their is no sign of letting up. If you are a child of the 60's like me, you can't help but see the irony in a song by the former Beatles star named John Lennon called "IMAGINE," (see vs. 6: they have IMAGINED to do") the song ends up with the "WORLD WILL LIVE AS ONE." I have pasted the song below, it is now the official theme song for the World Socialists, as shown here:

vs. 6. "And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have IMAGINED to do."


Imagine
by John Lennon

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one


Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
