Because you talk like one, with no apparent empathy for the neurodiverse, except perhaps people with profound issues. "We shouldn't treat any problems except the catastrophically bad." Gross.

This is not arguing in favor of your stance, but rather in favor of mine. You're essentially saying "ADHDers can't get shit done without being in dangerous situations, and THAT IS ACCEPTABLE." And yet you think this supports your idea that non-catastrophic disorders shouldn't be treated.
