It's not ableist to take issue with people who exclude qualitative considerations, especially considerations of human subjective experience and existence, from their reasoning. That's a very big and often dangerous flaw in reasoning that can cause a lot of problems, and that doesn't change even if autistic people have more of a tendency to fall into that sort of mistake. That just means it's a cognitive bias that's common for us just, like other cognitive biases (like e.g. the bandwagon fallacy) are more common for non-autistic people.

Here's my definition btw:

> it is a specific subset of the people who work in tech whose attitude towards tech is characterized by a sort of brash, prideful belief that you can solve everything with technological solutions and that the human (qualitative) factor of things just isn't relevant — or is even harmful because it's "unquantifiable" and it needs to be specifically perfected out of our considerations.
