I’m aware, but it was a bad mainstream opinion which was contradicted by every bit of evidence ever since early LISP efforts in the late 1960s (still waiting for the release of SHRDLU 2.0!)
65 years is a long time to be beating your head against an obvious dead end.
The article intro presents the claims as self-evident, when they’re not at all.
But, someone rise pointed out this may have been a dig at those attitudes, which makes more sense.
