Back in the day, Moron, Imbecile and Idiot had specific
IQ
ranges
to
be
classified as such...
I sort of knew that, but I wonder what they do now.
Intellectually disabled mostly
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellectual_disability
I've not heard that term. The usual euphemism is "learning

That's more for kids rather than adults.
which tends to refer to people who are unkindly and
humorously
referred
to
as "the hard of thinking"
That's more of an insult.

Doesnt make that term the only correct term.
Wait, didn't you say "There is no such animal as the correct term..."?
Yes, more than one term is valid for people like that.
How there be more than one correct term
if there is no such thing as the correct term?
Thanks for that completely superfluous proof
of my comment about intellectual disability.
You sure do contradict yourself quite often.
No contradiction at all there.
