This question resolves to "yes" whenever Searle explicitly admits the Chinese Room Essay was a prank to test the capable. If you read his actual work, it's all about "speech acts", which has zero consistency with his actual "Chinese room essay". And he didn't just pick Chinese because of the exoticism.
His point was meant to be that ALL genuine understanding is unconscious.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.

He was mocking you, people.
@EnopoletusHarding Mockery is a constant feature of bicam literature. Joseph Smith and Bronze Age Pervert did the exact same thing.
