Also to note, but not identifying as an LDS member doesn't make someone not culturally Mormon.
This can be hard to unpack for many, because they're often unaware, products of an environment that they're still living within. My ex was very culturally Muslim despite not knowing which of her traditions were specifically Muslim. I grew up with a Japanese mother, and thoroughly American people still find it difficult and exasperating to extract decisive answers from me when I think I'm being perfectly clear. Even understanding this, I'm not always as compassionate and yielding to people I find tedious, which I won't ever talk to them about if they don't also realize it.
I'm not sure how specifically cultural Mormonism presents, but knowing how deeply and totally Mormonism informs people's identities and worldview, I'm sure there are plenty of tells.
