The problem is plastic can't be broken down and reassembled forever. Recycling isn't Lego. The focus should be finding ways to reuse something without altering it too much. But yeah it's not gonna save the planet sadly.
I mean, plastic recycling is easy; burn it with filters, then put the filters in the hole where the oil came from. Then use a biodegradable replacement according to your needs.
