Actually, Eliza was a parody of a Rogerian psychotherapist, as any decent
reference on the topic says.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eliza_effect
Rogerian pyschotherapists responded largely by rephrasing the patient's

It is well known that the Eliza program was a flawed implementation of a
questionable approach to psychotherapy.
So. I wasn't holding the proposed software up to a very high standard.
A higher standard would be the Turing test.
