And it's not true that outcomes are the only determinant of ASD. MRI scans show areas of the brain where both structure and function is significantly different in ASD patients. Again, it's a serious developmental disorder, we're not "all on the spectrum". I sat through a couple of ASD conference when writing the modules, and though I wasn't always paying attention, I do remember one of the speakers with ASD saying nothing pisses them off more than neurotypicals claiming to be "a little on the spectrum" because of some trivial bullshit. But by all means, keep claiming it
