Now obviously this is satire, but even so, 3.75% seems staggeringly low. Does their definition of neurotypical just mean "not diagnosed autism?" I feel like even in our satire, we should be a bit more progressive. Those with autism diagnoses are relatively low compared to those undiagnosed autistic people and other forms of neurodivergence. ADHD alone contributes another several percent.

How does it feel to be 400 in 10,000 everyone? Not quite the same as 1 in a million but we're pretty good
