About 15 years ago I made a documentary film about homeless people (https://graceofgodmovie.com). Two of my subjects had the same medical condition, a seizure disorder resulting from a head injury, which made it effectively impossible for them to work. (To quote one of my subjects, "It's not that I'm incapable of working, the problem is that I'm not reliable. Most people don't want an employee who might lapse into a seizure on the job...")
Both applied for SSD. One was approved, the other denied, and so one ended up on the street and the other didn't. The judge who denied the first subject didn't give a reason, which became the basis for an appeal that went all the way to a federal circuit court. The appeal was denied.
