Interesting conversation
I think neurodivergent is important too as many people have dyslexia with other neurodivergent type brians and as mentioned traits can over lap.
I also see there is value to individual names of course, but we need to be careful about too much separation as we can end up giving more focus, and so more supports, to one neurotype over another. Or more stigma being assigned to one neurotype then another.
I found that I've really benefited being in a community of many types of neurodivergent people, in terms of support, than when I felt boxed into Dyslexic only.
