That's obviously what it says. No one is saying anything counter to that. A rope doesn't fit through the eye of a needle and a camel doesn't fit through the small gate it may have referred to. It's all the same meaning. We're just talking about what the literal thing being said was. They all effectively have the same meaning.
It never reffered to a gate, that didn't exist at the same time. But camels do supposedly fit through said gate, if they get on their knees.
Of course all bullshit to help rich people feel like being wealthy wasn't a sin if they were "humble" about it.
It's easier to argue about something like translation than to think about what it is actually saying. Let alone try to apply it to yourself. Technically, if you live in the US, you're already "rich" comparatively. No one wants to give up what they have.
I don't need half the shit I have, and I need some shit I don't have. I'll gladly give up a lot of shit. Even mass produced clothing.
