Ok but why put the onus on users “to cope”. Make it a “culture” thing.

Culture is formed by repeated individual choices from above and below. Many people pushing back on unreasonable expectations is how expectations can be kept reasonable.

I would also have said its a "professionalism" thing - and the use of coping strategies is term of art for those working with neurodiversity.

Do you think people who have achieved mastery in their field spend all their time coping? Or is this the first stuff they delegate to somebody else?
