There's levels to this stuff?

If you beat the boss at the end of level 1, you get a special prize: executive dysfunction!

The "Thank you Mario, but the princess is in another castle" type of win

Yeah, the diagnostic system was adjusted with the publication of the DSM-5 in 2013. Asperger's Syndrome was rolled into Autism Spectrum Disorder and Autism got three levels.

Little bit of skimming articles seems to say that the levels are based on need for support, higher being needing more.
