I'm curious what your background and experience is to classify the Autism spectrum as a mental disorder? I believe a better classification would be a developmental disorder - which I personally prefer to state as developmental blocks, which makes the spectrum of symptoms/behaviours and sets of behaviours as symptoms become easier to understand; and depending on when (and perhaps how) the developmental block started, will in part dictate where along natural evolution and brain development they are.
Pharma of course wants to classify it as a mental disorder so then doctors will be allowed to prescribe medications.
I'm curious too what you mean by several dozen dimensions? I wonder if you mean the same thing as I do when I say "set of behaviours?"
And yes, the industrial complex with pharma has learned how to indoctrinate the medical and educational system, and fine-tuned their marketing/advertising. I get sick to my stomach when I go to the US and put TV on, the constant flood of ads for medications that are all fluff information being presented.
