It's a Dame Uta Frith interview article basically, mainly for her views. A small token of other opinions, but it doesn't feel balanced, as they go back to her and she then dismisses them.
Even the autisitc woman they spoke to at the end, her struggles feel trivialised. I think it was purposeful to end with the quote saying 'silly brain disease' (a quote from an autisitc woman saying she doesn't care what it's called as long as she gets support, but for skim readers, they will read the top saying people are making it up, then scroll down to that finishing quote, and it could be completely misunderstood and that could be their take-away from looking at the article.)
