I certainly did not mean to imply that anything was solely a
trait of Aspbergers. How much we 'neurotypicals' can understand
a trait depends party on having some tendency to the same
thing. Psych and med students notoriously fret about having
every new disease they get details on, obsessing on hints of
some sign.
Aspies have made a home industry of spotting among famous
scientists, throughout history, single traits that are higher
in Aspies (or autisitics). Some folks argue from these examples
that 'different' is not 'inferior'.
