> Leaving aside the impossibility of comparing one person's burnout to another's

Imagine using this to dismiss the lived experience of, say, a PoC, and not getting instantly banned. But say it about autistic people and you will be lauded. This is the world we live in.

I don't see what's objectionable about that aside. The article's premise implies that "neurotypicals" cannot understand "autistic burnout" but the reverse is also necessarily true. This makes it impossible to compare the severity of each. I believe that the same is true for those with depression and those without, hence the meat of my comment.
