"...the US indicated they would regard it as an “unsafe’ event - ie. a provocation".
Perhaps no more need be said about the US government. For Iran to conduct routine naval exercises just off its own coast is dangerous, because it might "provoke" the large US task force that somehow happens to be right there, many thousands of miles from home.
If the USA would learn to keep its task forces to itself, the world would soon be a much more peaceful place. But that would not suit the people who own the USA.
I wonder if some of the characteristics listed in your illustration are present in attenuated form in many of us who do not think of themselves as anywhere on the spectrum.
Ever since I was a boy I have noticed that I often associate ordinary words with foods. I loved being told that I was "logical", for instance, because for me that word connotes rich, dark chocolate cake with thick icing.
I suppose that is a very mild form of synaesthesia.
It is supposed to be a "spectrum". I think most of these things happy at one time or another to a lot of people who don't think they are on the spectrum, "flow states" for example. Associative thinking appears characteristic of "creative" people. Your are obviously creative and polymathic too.
I agree with your short list of common Autistic 'errors'.
For myself i have decided to not make words and narratives my first way of looking (except when i communicate with civil servants, lawyers and police).
Next i noticed that 'Time' only exists in word-thinking. It has NO reality in the Non-words Reality.
There is only 1 time and that is NOW.
But when writing you cannot evade the past (even Lies) and the (probable) future.
Those are strongly connected to 'What have you done for or against the group' and 'What should you do or not do for the group.' Noted that Humans have many groups they feel as theirs.
The same is true for 'Me' or what i call Ego or Will. In the wordless Reality those do not exist. Things 'happen' and there is no one who is 'doing' it.
OK.
Next lesson will be about abandoning Words as much as possible. 😉 The first steps.
Certainly... But when there are more, even many words to describe or Label for example a battle-result or percept, like: A Genocide, A Massacre, A Slaughter, A Triumph, (Final) Victory, Success, Gain, Survival, Pyrrhic victory, etc.
And you can use the various names to paint it in a different colour, even different from the original 'colour'. That makes Lies or Propaganda. Even to yourself.
Because what you experience during the event is also coloured by your choice of words.
So it is important in Sensing, not to use words for its reality. And select them carefully, when words are needed. Or rather use new words without (or less) clear colour.
I have self-diagnosed me as a mild Asperger case. I also locate me as a Enneagram type 5. What I do experience is often a nearly physical pressure and pain during writing somthing importent for me, accompanied with fear to publish it. Epecially when I send it to relatives and friends. When I have done it, I often feel a release.

Thank you Julian...

Words at not things. They are perception. They are cave paintings. Does that make sense?
Certainly... But when there are more, even many words to describe or Label for example a battle-result or percept, like: A Genocide, A Massacre, A Slaughter, A Triumph, (Final) Victory, Success, Gain, Survival, Pyrrhic victory, etc.

I can certainly relate to that!
Julian, do you find yourself empathising with LLMs then - after all, some of the potential errors listed resemble mild hallucination?
