Can you summarize why it's a significant objection in that context?
From my novice perspective, the fact that in practice "whole-brain emulation" will also require the emulation of various sensory and motor and endocrine systems to achieve anything we'd recognize as intelligent seems like mere "haggling over the price," not a significant objection. If we can emulate cortical functions, it seems likely that we figured out how to emulate the other stuff generations back.
