Subclinical might just mean that you (currently) dont have a support need, within the confines of what healthcare and disability services can provide. I am diagnosed but have arguably slipped out of the clinical zone. On paper I could probably have my diagnosis removed, but I know that this sort of mobility goes both ways. I think this is why recognising even subclinical autism is important, since life might suddenly change for the worse, and then we might need help.
