Maybe if they weren't all in tiny cramped apartments with paper-thin walls and multiple roommates they wouldn't need to wear headphones all the time.

Also, voice chat doesn't work very well with speakers and microphone without a lot feedback.

Article literally starts off just describing my ADHD related auditory processing difficulties, which is interesting for their claims because I don't often listen to music in the first place because of it.

The only thing I use my headphones for are podcasts and audio books that I have rewind because I forgot I was listening to something.

My knee jerk response as a result is that it's probably just younger people being more comfortable admitting something is wrong and looking for an explanation from the wrong people. They note that it is prevalent in aneurotypical people but don't seem to have questioned that maybe these people simply aren't diagnosed properly.

It's especially interesting that they chose a woman as the focus for the article, with women being demonstrably underdiagnosed in particular.
