The meaning of Article II sec 1 stands fixed until modified by a subsequent amendment. Not even the 14th amendment changed it in any way shape form or fashion. Not the Immigration and Naturalization Acts of 1790 or 1795 or 1802, nor the 19th amendment or women’s rights generally. IT HAS NOT BEEN AMENDED.

Prior to the Cable Act, when Article II was passed, a US woman married to a foreign national, who gives birth to a child out of the country could not transmit citizenship to her new born. Even AFTER the Cable Act, they would only be a natualized by statute citizen and never a natural born one.

These other arguments you raise have no bearing on Article II. NBC ONLY applies to eligibility for the office of POTUS. Nothing else.
