To a point, poor social skills and a hyper-analytical mind is simply that, and needn't be considered to be undesirable. It makes me wonder if the increased awareness of autism spectrum disorders isn't in part due to an increased focus upon emotional intelligence and social inclusiveness.

No doubt, the world is a better place because of individuals with this spectrum of genotypes.
