"broad spectrum of symptoms with varying severities"
Think this is the key.
Maybe 'mild' can have some advantages, while 'severe' does not.
And also, environment.
If you have 'mild'-'middle' symptoms, but also lucked into a school-career like software or something, maybe it seems like 'super power'.
But for those people, this is luck that symptoms and environment/situation matched up.
