If you were being honest, you would note that the 1790 law you cited was cancelled and replaced in 1792, specifically because the issue of natural born citizen needed better definition.

Correction, 1795:

this 1790 act was specifically repealed in 1795 and replaced with the same exact clause you quoted EXCEPT the words “natural born” have been deleted leaving only the word “citizens”. [Section 3 Naturalization Act of 1795]
