@farah maybe there is a correlation there. I know I talk as though I can but I cannot really see how allistic somebody is (despite my ridiculous propensity to guess).

but interpersonally it does not matter. if someone is vague or unclear with me they will be entered into a process of information extraction that can be as easy or difficult as they choose, and which ends when they have achieved the acceptable standard of clarity. I'm helpful like that. highly recommend this approach.
