The discussion around “academic doping” seems spot-on to me.
Regarding the increase in diagnoses of autism-spectrum, I think a few decades ago, those people would have just been called “weirdos” or “creepy” or “special”. They might not have had a diagnostic label, but it was not as if they were unlabeled by those around them.
