I mean, I don’t think it’s fair to say that anyone is better or worse based on their neurotype. ( Please correct me if you didn’t mean that neurotypical communication is inferior!)

That’s kind of my point (I’m OOP). Different modes of communication are equally valid, even if we don’t understand them. It’s easy to fall into this thinking of autists are better at communicating when you’re autistic and have an easier time with other autists, but I don’t think it’s fair.

I wish I remembered where I read this, but I think there’s even studies that neurodivergents (not even just autists) and neurotypicals each communicate very well among themselves, but start having trouble in a mixed group.
