Mr. Know-It-All stands out for its character-driven exploration of neurodiversity. By focusing on Asperger’s Syndrome, the film shifts away from neurotypical storytelling and uses the condition to shape the central character's journey. However, the film lacks diversity in other areas. It does not feature any explicit LGBTQ+ representation or specific racial diversity. While the gender dynamics hint at a critique of masculine detachment, the film remains centered on a particular familial and neurodivergent dynamic.
