The problem with autism is that it is not just a disability but also a hypeability. If neurotypicals gave special accommodations to autistics during math tests they would not be just competing with a disabled person on a level playing field but they would be competing with Einstein himself. If you are not a genius there is no way to compete with a genius but you can compete with a slow learner or a person who can't complete the test on time.
Can you tell that to my friends' sister please? She's low functioning and has serious sensory issues.
Autism is a spectrum. Even the high functioning people have issues.
