I was being lighthearted by converting it to seconds, but I was genuinely curious if that was part of communicating with autists. I was wondering if it's something like what you described, or if it would mess them up further because then they might count down the seconds, thinking that was a literal request. That's really interesting how you respond, and I'll keep that in mind when communicating with people who have ADHD. Thanks for the informative answer!
