No problem i kinda understand how you feel my SO got her diagnostic 2 yrs ago and it's been constant research since. Keep it up and continue questionning everything, no one has ever been harmed by a question. Much love from canada 👋

No he doesn't because trauma, aka emetional or mental distress caused by experience have nothing to do with it.

Few would dispute that the causes of ASD include both genetic and environmental factors. Indeed, more than 100 genes are known to confer risk1,2 and 1,000 or more may ultimately be identified.3 A wide range of potential environmental challenges have also been associated with autism, although studies in this area lag behind genomics research. A short overview of data supports genetic and environmental contributions to ASD etiology. A focus on prenatal events will hopefully clarify that the cause of autism, in the vast majority of cases, occurs prenatally, even if behavioral signs first appear several years after birth.

ASD is a heterogeneous disorder, both etiologically and in terms of clinical presentation, and individuals with ASD demonstrate a wide spectrum of abilities and challenges. While the etiology of ASD is complex and still remains largely unknown, this condition is likely the result of the interactive effects of genetic and environmental risk factors (Lai et al. 2014; Schaefer 2016; Tchaconas and Adesman 2013). ASD is a highly heritable neurodevelopmental disorder, with a high concordance rate among monozygotic twins (Bailey et al. 1995) and an increased risk of sibling recurrence (Ozonoff et al. 2011; Risch et al. 2014). ASD is largely not a single-gene disorder. Rather, there are likely hundreds of genes that contribute to its etiology (Gilman et al. 2011; Levy et al. 2011). A number of environmental factors, particularly during the prenatal period, also present an increased risk for ASD including maternal diabetes, infection, fever, and inflammation (Ornoy et al. 2015); maternal asthma and allergies (Croen et al. 2005); the use of certain drugs during pregnancy (Croen et al. 2011; Gidaya et al. 2016;), extreme prematurity (Johnson et al. 2010), and maternal exposure to air pollution (Raz et al. 2015; Volk et al. 2013). Advanced parental age (Idring et al. 2014) has also been associated with an increased risk of ASD.
Tl,dr; genetics and prenatal disposition are the only known causes.
What i think op describe is more likely the masking autistic people do which is a defense mechanism they use after living traumatic event.
Let's talk about textile then!

This study uses Comtrade trade data covering 1990–2017, 14 textile subsectors, and 53 African countries with their main trade partners to evaluate Chinese trade impacts on African textile exports over three subperiods at the sector level. It finds that, although textile imports from China had a significant positive impact during the first period, this effect disappeared in the second period. From 2009 to 2017, the impact became significantly negative.
Nevermind that, let's talk about nortel and huawei!

Which is the perfect moment to talk about...

Why would chinese ever be afraid of other people copying them? Unless they know what might happen because they... did it?
We can also talk about tibet, sri lanka, australia, new zealand, hong kong, taiwan, maynmar, russian sanction's... the list is quite long.
