Being able to abstract between the general and the specific with ease means that neurotypicals can compress information in a way that still preserves the core message, give it to another NT, and then the other NT can extract the useful parts with the same relative effort. The speaker delivers a small subset of the initial information and the listener absorbs an even smaller subset, but it's enough for NTs in most day-to-day communications.
As autistics, we tend to find utility in a lot more information than neurotypicals do. Our communication style requires the listener's full attention to be most effective because it gives them much more information to parse. It takes more time and energy from both parties, but it's lossless and it leads to a more complete understanding.

Its sort of like the "NTs expect you to apologize without explination, but for ND people an apology without an explanation feels incomplete" thing
