Exactly.

I would not want to bring a severely autistic child into the world. But there needs to be definition between people who are 'high-functioning' and those who aren't, because when people say autism they're generally meaning the latter in my experience. Didn't they split Aspergers from autism at some point recently?

I could have sworn they actually added Aspergers to the Autism spectrum a few years ago after it being a separate thing for a long time.
