The planet would experience painful transition, but would eventually be much better off with its new knowledge. And corrupt governments would be no more.
You forget something, a hypothetical non-interference clause as in the prime directive in the fictional Star-Trek sci-fy series. 'They' might have concluded that direct interference in alien races social/political progress is taboo. A benign race of an advanced species would see that no matter how benign you are you would still be resented by the natives. It has become apparent to me that you can not force Human Evolution - If man can not evolve from within his own self then all the advice from external races will fall on deaf ears. An advanced alien race can not force Man to evolve - it might be easier to teach a dog how to talk. And yet dogs may never be capable of talking, let us hope that humans are capable of evolving and transcending the past.

How is that really any different than what some biologists do when studying nature? (Other than the mind erasing part, some tranquilizer drugs might come close though.)

That might be true but I often consider the only thing the government[s] are covering up is their ignorance of what is happening because they really don't know - And government intelligence agencies hate to admit to being dumb.
And unless the alien visitors have already formed secret alliances with government as many ET conspiracy advocates would have you believe, and unless you believe in the so-called abductions, they have not really done much or interfered [as far as we know] in human civilization on this planet.
