Fantastic article! I have hyperphantasia and very strong episodic memory (30 years ago I could vividly recall memories from 3 or 4 years old, and even brief flashes from about 18 months old - but now I mostly have memories of memories).
I always understood it was why I am good at retaining information (I don't just remember the facts, but the paper it was written on), but had no idea until just now that it's also why I'm good at making quick decisions in a crisis, which is also an 'ADHD' thing'.
