You don't need autism to hear high pitched whining from machines. Summer people are just naturally more sensitive to higher pitches, while the older you get the less you tend to be able to hear them. To the point that some places that don't want kids looting or ducking around will play high pitched tones over speakers that most adults can't hear.
Hypersensitivity is its own thing but the comorbidity rate with autism is huge. I's also not always high pitches: personally I have issues with the air pressure, daylight, and many smells.
no but the specific sense of picking them out of literally anything. Active conversation? Music, background noise from a game or something? NOPE IT'S THE LITTLE NOISE IN THE BACKGROUND THAT'S ABNORMAL NOW.
