If you’re part of the human race/species, you’re human. Plenty of humans have severe cognitive disabilities, but they’re still human. And heck, that usually just results in them not being able to communicate their thoughts/feelings. We can’t see inside their heads and say, “Yup. There’s a human thought right there.”

They are neurodivergent, but that doesn’t take away the humanity.

But when referring to the baseline human, the generalized whole of the race/species, with no outstanding deviations, yes the depth of thought, reasoning, and exploration of artistic and philosophical concepts are the core of what sets humanity apart.

So more directly, it’s a combination I believe. Don’t forget a sprinkling of emotions as well.

Oh no, did I start an argument?

Nah, just a debate. Neither me nor @Bas got rude or mad, so it’s all good.
