I don't disagree with this at all; but I do question if there's been a lot of research for what kind of resources even help "high-performing or moderately-performing people", let alone directing these resources to this demographic over autistic people who struggle to meet society's expectations for individual productivity.
"Advocacy" I could see more clearly, and I question how much of this "advocacy" is actually doing for "high-performing or moderately-performing" people.
IMO, the only way to really "resolve" the anxiety over prioritizing one group over another in either discourse or in resources in the long term is finding a way to integrate non-productive people into the daily lives of productive people. This seems difficult to imagine in today's America, where community is largely based around interests and careers that will self-select these people away.
