I think it's different because, at least in some forms, it comes with advantages as well as disadvantages. For some people it's debilitating, but for others it's not.
What possible advantage is there to having any form of autism?

#52Autism (or maybe some forms of it) are now linked to gut problems / inflammation and can be treated with fecal transplants: University of Arizona experimental study on 18 children: https://microbiomejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186... A very successful treatment of one child: https://youtu.be/KRXl_N0OtX4?t=1477

Greater general logical reasoning ability. Also, many people with ASD resent 'NTs' ((N)euro(T)ypical people), and view their existence with—not animosity, but as something they would not like for themselves.

#55Since when was autism classified as a disease?
Since always? It’s a developmental disorder, and a disease is “a disorder of structure or function in a human, animal, or plant, especially one that produces specific symptoms or that affects a specific location and is not simply a direct result of physical injury.” Pretty much every medical body would list it under its classification of illnesses. e.g. NHS: https://www.nhsinform.scot/illnesses-and-conditions/brain-n…
Seen so many health professionals because of my family, not one has ever referred to it as a disease.
Just to elaborate further.
Child 1 - ASD/ADHD Child 2 - ASD/SPD possibly PDA Partner - ASD/SPD
They're all different and display different characteristics,have differing needs and have different mental health issues. Child 1 is about 2 years behind their peers educationally and socially, Child 2 is on par.

Deliberate pseudoscience link. Mods, please remove this.
It's a review of this paper [1]. Why do you consider it pseudoscience? [1] "Assessment of Hair Aluminum, Lead, and Mercury in a Sample of Autistic Egyptian Children: Environmental Risk Factors of Heavy Metals in Autism" https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4609793/
