I dont understand why "hit the ball on the ground" is sound advice. I know you have a much better probability of finding a hole and getting on base which is the true factor in run scoring, but the advice should be "stop swinging for the fences and drive the ball middle-away". "Hit the ball on the ground" comes off as not being aggressive.

That is the advice. Drive hit where it's pitched.
They don't want them hitting it in the air because it's fairly routine to catch a fly ball.
A lot more goes into fielding a ground ball and making the throw to first.
