She calls this the system sensing, claiming that most people move on to the system of interpretation, which enables them to make sense of the world. In doing so, as well as gaining the means of coping with the world, they lose various abilities which people with autism retain. She goes so far as to suggest that the constraints of time and space do not exist in the same way for autistic people, and that the emotional as the physical world is seen and therefore approached in a different way.
