I actually think "cop-out" is a pretty misleading way of looking at the situation. I don't think there's any reason to doubt that these people, by and large, are having legitimate issues that hinder them, even if there's a group with "true ADHD" (if such a thing exists) that they aren't a part of.
Regarding the first, I'm afraid in the age of smartphone, texting, and high speed data we're all kind of ****ed, particularly younger and future generations who are used to having their needs sated immediately and are being pulled in a thousand different directions at once.
I was recently prescribed Vyvanse, a drug similar to Adderall, for the first time. In the course of my research I came across a place in town which is trying to address the issue largely in a non-pharmaceutical way, which would be ideal, but the results are unproven to date. Even if it works it only addresses the small percentage it serves and who can afford treatment, not the rapidly multiplying population of spazzes in the world.
Regarding the second paragraph I'm mostly referring to using it as a crutch or excuse instead of trying to overcome it, and that some percentage of the time it's just people being lazy and it can in fact be overcome, e.g. me with the tardiness thing.
