It's just so annoying to read a condescending tone of a cool mathematical and computational tool to the degree of almost ridiculing it. It happened before and it caused the first AI winter, which was unfortunate. Maybe they are annoyed too that it gets overhyped and misrepresented.
I think the guilty party is whoever chose the label "neural" to describe high dimensional regression.
I don't see a rebuttal in your reply. NNs can make for good classifiers but they certainly get overused trying to make predictions in spaces that are not predictable.
