typically neurodivergent, but I’d argue most

Yup. I'm (mostly) neurotypical, and used to unconsciously reach for a pen whenever I need to focus on reading code, or have important conversations. I don't click it, just need something to hold (and very occasionally bite on).

Now I consciously carry a "focus pen".

I'm sure Freud has something to say about the whole thing...
