It makes the allistic reader feel better to have it repeated, even though its stated in the first paragraph.

Thanks for reading. That is a very good point I have taken away from publishing this. I stated in the first sentence that I have no problem being wrong, in fact, I want to be wrong because it means I can do an even better job and learn new stuff.

If anything, the ratio of “you can’t acknowledge you’re wrong” to “oh i’m wrong” situations is about 1:1000. In future articles, I will spread and repeat things out a bit more, instead of editing an article like I would a strategy document.

I've never been diagnosed with autism, but I'm certain I'm on the spectrum.

I hate repeating myself. But I had to learn to write in such a way to do so because if I don't I end up with 4 sentences when a person further off the spectrum will write an entire page on the subject... or maybe that's my subjective opinion.

You can make all the personal inferences you want but I don't agree; I repeat myself because if I don't I received lower grades and downvotes.
