I don't think anyone is trying to disqualify DNNs. I think the difference might be an abstraction for a neuron vs an abstraction for the brain. Success or value doesn't necessarily equate to "human-like." The paper seems naive to, or ignore, prominent, long-running/standing related research that provides a stronger foundation and as far as I can tell includes what they propose. So, at least for me, I'm not sure what the contribution is.
