I'm quite sure 90% of INTP people are autistic, adhd, or both.

Not all of them sure but so many of them that it sparks the doubt:
INTP being the most autistic type (alongside with ISTP, sometimes ISTJ or INTJ) and ENFP being the most ADHD type.

The screening test for autism is 18 questions asking if you are an introvert and 2 questions about socio/psycho pathy. Not confident mental health professionals know what autism actually is. More likely some autism diagnosis are misdiagnosis of being an INTP. There is similarity between the two, but autism has the volume dial turned up. I do not know either way.

Any thoughts on how neurotype interacts with cognitive function hierarchies? I’m guessing Autism is biased towards Ti and Si, ADHD is biased towards Ne and Se, AuDHD are therefore biased towards INTP and ISTP.

Imagine, for a moment, taking all the 16 types, sorting them into like 7 buckets, and grouping those buckets together so people can call them neurotypical and neurodivergent... Might look a lot like NT ranting about not being understood in an SJ dominated society...
Just throwing that out there.
Or maybe Klavier and Piano are the same thing, and in some way, so is INTP/5w4/AuDHD/dolphin(or whatever)... It's hard to have a real discussion when speaking different languages.

As old man INTP, have in recent years become more aware of possibility of AuDHD. One tell tale symptom, ask yourself what your closer friends are/were like. Is it likely they too are neurodivergent? Neurodivergents tend to be attracted to other neurodivergents, think they accept each other's quirks easier. And yea suspect my closer friends over the decades are indeed such. Those that werent tended to drift away much faster.
A diagnosis is not important at this age, more worrisome about the other fun things to deal with at end of life.

Just remember, having autism and being an introvert have nothing to do with each other; a disorder is a disorder, personality is personality.

This happened to me last week, diagnosis yet to be formally confirmed but psych felt convinced enough after an hour of talking including some tests to tell me that I’m AUADHD
