I associate Searle on microphysical computation with his claim about random particle systems implementing Wordstar in Rediscovery of Mind, which he fails to show and walks back immediately.

Looking through the text again (this is Why Machines Will Never Rule the World), they actually do push back against Searle's wall, which is definitely a weird ass argument. They call it "a puzzling claim" which is polite.
