I’m not Autistic, but do suffer a mild dyslexia and i’ve come to the conclusion that its about modes of I/O, more specifically parallel execution, async operation vs in line sequential information processing. In my mind everything is vivid, communicating it is not. I can however see that not all variations of this kind of divergence amplify the creative thought process.
I think that's why others like me, find solitude writing software, creating vivid mental models that shift in real time in my head, yet and the ability to express them with a distinct editable syntax in random order and see them simulated means you can be productive and add value in the economy.
but that said it is an example of
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freakonomics (those predisposed, will or are significantly more likely to) and when you artificially stimulate and control you get artificial results.
