The solution to that is just allowing these accommodations for anyone regardless of diagnosis, on a “If it helps you it’s for you” basis.
There’s no difference between 1.25x time and 2x time on exams for most people, because most exams are designed so most people finish with time left over.
We really need to normalize disabilities as a fact of life more and have more accessibility tools be "if it helps you it's for you". I feel weird using "accessible" stuff that's a Big Deal to use, even stuff that looking at its technical design is better for everyone including perfectly abled folks. If I have to look like a jerk or disclose my neurodivergence for an accessibility tool, I'm not going to try it. If it's just available for anyone to use, and I'm not depriving someone with a physical disability of access to it, I'll try anything that looks useful.
