Thank you. Assuming that this is also what Russ was getting at, the answer is simple.
People have a moral and certain legal duties to make adjustments when dealing with disabled people and their vastly varying conditions.
For example, not taking into account the fact that someone is autistic is akin to admonishing a wheelchair user for not standing up in church!
