Given that autism is highly heritable, it’s a huge flaw in the autism diagnosis process that parents are expected to know and confirm if there is anything “different” about their child. If there is, they probably won’t have noticed, as it’s likely their entire family is autistic.
what's truly bizarre about this is that they're aren't two different versions of the same character, they're two completely different characters that just so happen to share the same name AND coincidentally released on the same day by authors that did not even know each other
