   @evan As a product designer, I vote strong yes. Considering neurodiversity means e.g. providing ways of turning off animations and providing context cues. Ideally you also test at least key flows with neurodiverse end users in their habituated environment.

     @mjausson does it mean *only* that? Could it also mean considering the neurodiversity of the design team and other collaborators?

     @mjausson Agreed! Neurodiversity also brings different ways of looking at problems or considering solutions. Thinking more broadly within a group can make the work even better.

     @evan When collaborating with people, you have to meet them where they are. So if you have coworkers who are neurodiverse, that's something you need to take into account. But that's not unique to designers.

     @brettpeary @mjausson maybe just post your thoughts in a reply instead?

     @evan @mjausson I wish I could change my vote. the conversations have made me think about it in a different way.
