The divergence is what sort of lighting you consider "comfortable", in case you were serious.

Isn't it generally accepted that directional, dim lighting makes for a more comfortable atmosphere? I doubt that any professional interior or lighting designer would just put a single omnidirectional ceiling light in the middle of the room and call it a day, for good reason. So how is enjoying that neurodivergent? Tbh it seems more neurodivergent to me to be comfortable with bright cold light at home — that's serial killer behavior, lol.

Seems more like a question of preferences or caring / not caring about something rather than being neurotypical or not.

Interesting choice to associate neurodivergence with serial killer behaviour haha

[–] efstajas 2 points 6 months ago

Hyperbole, and the other way around — serial killers are obviously neurodivergent, but of course not all neurodivergent people are serial killers, haha.

Well, they might because it's cheap.

[–] efstajas 2 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Well sure, but the point is they wouldn't do it because people prefer it.

Indeed. At least not as a some form of lighting. Better to have area and spot lighting (and flexibility for different moods/situations).
