Instead of a hive mentality, they would have leaders, generals, and improved strategy. So, those held on Demonreach had to be kept separate.
Does that make any sense?

I see Outsiders owning the universe before the big bang happened, lots of of nice empty night. Then God and His buddies, the other various gods and goddesses, archangels, angels etc, butted in and created the heavens, the earth, planets, stars, galaxies, etc, then mucking it up further with all matter of life forms... All the Outsiders want, is their playground back, things were so much more simple then...

You may be correct. Only "The Butcher" knows. ;D But, if I'm right, it would explain how Merlin was able to trap the Major Gods and significantly strong entities. Jim gave us an object lesson in Summer Knight. A mantle of a fallen God/entity/Lady is going to go to its nearest potential vessel (just like Aurora's went to Lily, Maeve's went to Molly, and Lily's went to Sarissa). All Merlin had to do was figure a way to create a vessel and store it on Demonreach. When the God/Goddess/Major Bad news baddy is finally forgotten in total by mortals, their mantle travels to Demonreach and is imprisoned. The same would hold true for entities killed in battle (for example, Perseus killed the Kraken with Medusa's head). The Kraken's mantle of power went to the nearest vessel and Demonreach held the only such vessel in reality. Hence, it was imprisoned.
PS: If you have to build a vessel to hold a mantle of power...having Soulfire (power of creation) isn't going to hurt your chances.

Isn't there a WOJ about the outsiders being the Old Ones and their minions? As well as a comment on when/what they ruled?

Not WoJ, but a few comments throughout the series. Do you want me to go fetch the comments?
