    Yeah, on the one hand it isn’t fair to let someone be born with a condition that negatively effects their life when there’s a treatment to prevent it happening. On the other hand, as you say it’s good to have divergent people in society - there really is strength in diversity.

        Fewer, not none. Adhd for example tends to interfere with the pursuit of longer term goals in some ways, regardless of society’s pressures and expectations. Those make it asymmetrically harder on top of everything else.

        The social model of disability is essential, but it’s not the only perspective to keep in mind.
