I have similar observations, and your suggested explanations seem reasonable but I have nothing but anecdata either way. I have known a lot of people in tech in the US from whom I've gotten the distinct impression they are formally diagnosed with ADHD and perhaps on medication.
I have also known a lot of people who tend to self-diagnose problems that I suspect they don't really have and then talk about them a lot (such as ADHD). They're usually the people who are fixated on vaccines and 5G as the cause of many health problems, but they typically won't have much interaction with "establishment" doctors on these issues. It's my impression that this is more common in the US than Europe, but it's a distinct issue. Not sure if some of that is mixed in to your observations?
