If this were so obviously true there wouldn't be nearly so much concern about people having relationships with AIs.

No, that’s why there is a concern. They’re replacing human relationships with things that superficially look like human relationships but have no depth.
No, that's other people being concerned, it's not the people in the relationships that are concerned.
The position was "a machine pretending to be a human can’t engender the same emotional response as another human" and quite clearly to some people it can, so the statement is false.
