I'd also suggest the cognitive element is necessary, but not sufficient. Action is needed - actually changing the design of work, social systems, to accommodate the fullest range of people possible.
On a different note, I appreciate why people dislike the puzzle image (with the implication of a missing piece), but it sort of resonated for me in a different way - when a consultant said I might have autistic traits, it felt like a piece had slotted into place.

@misaimed_brain @autistics I can see how that would be. Not so much that we were lacking, more needing the key to unlock ourselves. And yes, structural changes are definitely needed.
