 Still, the difficulty of focusing on emotions in the current context is that we do not have a principled way of distinguishing between the good influences of emotion on decision-making and the bad influences. Moreover we need a way to draw this distinction that is independent of our opinion about the goodness or badness of the choices being made. Most of us tend to see the influence of emotion as bad when we think the decision reached is bad, and vice versa. But value neutrality and the related commitment to a process-based approach rule this out. Finally, some theorists have recently voiced worries about what might happen if emotionality were included in capacity assessments in the wrong way. Including emotionality might be good for some patients, e.g., those with depression, but might result in too much loss of freedom for autistic persons or other neurodiverse people whose emotional responses are different from the norm but who arguably are quite able to make decisions for themselves (Mackenzie &amp; Watts 2011a,b).
