That’s a very weak argument. Memories are not exact replica of experiences. We know that many memories are retained through a lifetime, particularly the ones from early childhood. Unlike computers we always reconstruct memories from several modalities. Even if we remember largely on vibes as you say (which is not true when you look into neuroscience), the sheer amount of information is overwhelming. Again, try to run a 90 minute movie through an LLM memory system. It won’t be able to tell you the plot. That’s before you even feed it sound. Even 100M tokens is not enough for that. You on the other hand will largely remember the movies you liked and their major plot lines and from there be able to reconstruct its scenes. I think the engineers working on memory vastly underestimate the capacity problem of discrete states.

blah blah we know that blah neuroscience blah blah blah.

This isn't an argument you are making, it's just an assertion that you could make an argument if you are so inclined, but you won't be doing so at this time, but "science" is obviously on your side, but you can't be bothered to say how or even enough detail for someone to check what you are referring to. I can do that to, see my first sentence in this reply.

I don't know how LLM memory systems work. I do know that you don't have a lifetime of remembering everything with high precision. Not only do most people not remember the plot of most of the movies they have seen, they can't reliably list most of the movies they have seen. Not everyone has a good memory. My point is that it's not valid to reference a false model of how human memory works as a reason some specific LLM memory implementation isn't useful for solving some problems.
