But I think the assumption that BP is something absolute may cause one to believe that such powers are absolute or exceptional.

I think the assumption is wrong (and harmful). That's also (partly) why I don't believe BP should be described as an illness.

We might be exceptionally gifted, but everyone has the same gift.
