But that doesn’t tell you anything about the test-taker, it only tells you about their social environment.
If they’re autistic and hang out with other neurodivergents then nobody is going to tell them they’re too literal, they might even tell them they aren’t literal enough.
I’m pretty sure this is how so many members of my family have made it to adulthood without getting diagnosed earlier (I mean, aside from diagnosis becoming more common/accepted these days.)
Like, you mean to tell me there are siblings who don’t send each other pictures of interesting road signs they come across? Pfft, what a weird family that must be. Next you’ll be telling me that most families don’t ask each other impromptu trivia questions about obscure topics that they happen to share interests in.
This is our normal. Always has been. It’s the rest of the world that’s weird.
Some social situations or believes about social are surely more likely with certain groups of neurodivergent people and thus questions about it should give some information about the test taker.

This is what my family is like!
It’s really such a shame they’re extremely religious and homophobic af, otherwise we’d get along so well 😥
As it is I barely speak to them…
