Pathological or caused by some condition traits are the big, notable ones. And personal differences are more subtle.
Just like, say, serial housing - Soviet microdistricts look all the same on the plan and even from the outside, and there are common tendencies with small crime and all that. But, of course, people living in each one of them are different, so is graffiti on the walls, illegal construction, potholes and pits, trees and bushes, garages, shops and playgrounds.
I was mostly talking about things which are specific to what autism is.
Well, you were talking about the positive aspects of autistic people only. Maybe it's hard to notice that, but it sounds almost like you think they are a better version of non-autistic people. From my perspective, that's not really how it is... :) Autism or not, people can have a lot of negative personality traits that make them a pain to be around.
Maybe you are right. I'm thinking about the wrong kind of autistic people right now.
