The problem with your argument is not the goal, but the approach to the goal. There's a whole bunch of researchers who have a paper out "Neural-Symbolic Learning and Reasoning: A Survey and Interpretation" https://arxiv.org/abs/1711.03902 that discuss all kinds of fanciful approaches.

The correct approach is one where the is no native machinery for symbolic manipulation. Symbolic manipulation is simulated by a connectionist architecture. It is of course inefficient compared to how computers do it, but that's the reality.

I guess so :-)

I can make no such claim. I spent 10+ years working in the symbolic paradigm, then 10+ years working on neurodynamics, and only came around to the view that NNs and GOFAI should be reconciled a couple of years ago
