Yeah, we know enough about stuttering to call it a disorder. Furthermore, by having a medical diagnosis, a lot of doors are opened up in regards to getting speech therapy and for the medical community to develop pharmaceuticals to stop it (Ecopipam being in Phase 2 trials right now, for example). Instead of trying to erase the disorder, we should erase the stigma surrounding it and other disorders.
