I'm of the opinion that passing it (yes! I want chocolate) isn't necessarily meaningful. But a child who Very Much Likes Chocolate who doesn't hear it when it is likely to be heard (and multiple times) warrants checking. But I'm a strong advocate that when testing is easy, accessible, affordable, and not invasive, then over testing is preferable, because the atypical presentations are more likely to get caught as well.
Probably not surprising you, but one of those two has an ADHD diagnosis as well.
