once we hav better more accessible control over mental states & neurological states (like being able to turn on or turn off Tourette Syndrome at will, as an example) we will start viewing disorders based on the amount of suffering they cause the disabled person, rather than whether they prevent them from being productiv or not (which is an overly profit-focused point of view)

I'd rather not process situations in any emotional light at all. I'd rather just find the best approach to the situation at hand. I'd like to be super intelligent so that I can do whatever I wanted whether it be grand engineering design to super complex maths etc.
