One of my therapists at one point described how the mental health community wanted to move away from labelling people into boxes (especially for Autism and ADHD).

They're a series of traits which people can have at in different quantities individually.

One of the challenges seems to be that health insurances work expecting a concrete diagnose, and this labelling satisfies this need.
