The use of it strikes me as a more specified extension of "retard," one which more directly communicates failure in social interactions than retard as an umbrella term for intellectual disability.

I feel like Ian and Verbatim don't understand what signs/symptoms are

I'n not saying everyone actually has autism, in just saying it's way more "diagnosed" than it actually should be. But that's what happens when you put it under a "spectrum".
