Well, it was certainly hard to see it any other way:
Author:
The spectrum is not a gradient.
From your first reply:
A typical spectrum is the exact same thing as gradients of frequencies.
As your reply did not explicitly make this claim about the autism spectrum, it nominally did not directly contradict the author, but if it was not about the autism spectrum, then it was utterly pointless to raise it here - and, furthermore, it took several promptings on my part before you addressed this issue.
With regard to your second paragraph, I completely agree.
- _y5hn 5y agoSure, but I found this phrase a bit bombastic: "The spectrum is not a gradient." Good find though, that was probably what sparked the sub-thread. I replied to you in further posts that I see both perspectives. So can now conclude I don't see it as just one way because it depends on your frame of reference / POV / state of mind. Maybe it was pointless when I didn't really relate it directly to autism at first, and I didn't mean to go into a discussion of it being either that or the other in the first place.
