I understand what you mean! What I (and probably most of us) want is the balance between "treat me like a normal person" (as in, with the same dignity and less condescension) and "don't set expectations too high". I believe portraying persons on the spectre as savant geniuses as in "Rain Man" or ADHD as a "superpower" skews the balance to one side and we just need some disclaimers to even it out.
