Disability is a social construct, the result of people not having the supports they need to live lives unburdened by undue friction. The disability factor shows up awful quick if and when you suddenly find yourself without your supports and coping mechanisms, but it’s not really a disability until then.
By the same metric, severe poverty is a disability, albeit an unrecognized one.
