Correct, but you're missing the forest for the trees.

As I'm demonstrating, the Chinese Room argument is still relevant regardless of Searle's original intent, because its underlying logic also applies to neurons and neural networks.

I restated it in modern neuronal terms because the exact same pieces/gestalt argument applies to biology.

Nobody still discusses the Chinese Room because they're interested in 80's symbolic AI. This is why I said the "original formulation is awkward to modern ears".
