Autism Spectrum Disorder is an umbrella term, that’s why there’s a spectrum in there.

It refers to the brain infrastructure being “neurodivergent” due to a host of natural causes (but not an unusual amount of chromosomes or neuron damage), if nerve cells get damaged due to outside influences, it tends to count as different mental conditions not associated with autism.
