Of course it is without caveats and deeper knowledge just like equivalent ignorant use of IDEs without understanding the deeper pedagogical issues — more on my thoughts here:http://neuroplausible.com/matlab
Yup. At the cloud event yesterday one individual pointed out correctly that the problem is that when you give someone a tool they think it's the right tool for everything.
He also explained that public cloud is the right tool for everything. 
I mean, my only other more general comment about the notebook concept (not just Jupyter) is that there were a number of tools in the 90s with a similar interface called "the worksheet" and this interface was completely abandoned for pretty much the reasons I describe.
I'd say this tweet detracts from the rest of your points, since it feels like an ad-hominem against both the project itself & anyone who considers it genuinely useful.
Saying something about the generic notebook concept doesn't imply these shortcomings can't be addressed. I believe the concept as served up is very hype-driven.

In the real world see my tweets on why hype/oversimplified thinking can't get you that far. Please read this sub-thread:https://twitter.com/o_guest/status/1070713373292199937 …

And to be clear, I consider jupyter genuinely useful.
