Neurodiversity cannot be a protected characteristic because it means everyone. It means the natural variation in a group of minds. One person cannot be neurodiverse, as they only have one brain.
But I do get your point that neurodiverse accounts for the whole population. It should be a protected characteristic still and separate from disability I believe

I think I see what you mean, tho I thought we were already supposed to be covered by the Equality Act, but I suppose if you mean to extend protections for neurodiverse people by looking at disability also though a social not just a medical model that would be a very worthwhile cause.
