I think the title of the paper makes more sense if you consider that ten years ago, someone could have written a paper in a similar spirit with a different take on "what is enough". Back then, it would probably have been titled: "Backpropagation of errors is enough".
The last ten years have shown that backpropagation -- while a crucial component -- is not enough. Personally, I would not be shocked to find out in the next ten years that reinforcement learning is not enough for an AGI (as there are aspects like one-shot learning, forgetting, sleep, and other phenomena for which the RL framework seems not a natural fit).
