You referred to "significantly less rationality than the average person, perhaps somewhere between children and autists". In what possible world is that not depicting autistic people as having "significantly less rationality than the average person"?
(Treating "autists" as interchangeable with "Spock, automatons, whatever" is also pretty obnoxious, though it's not exactly a matter of depicting anyone in any particular way.)
Look, I'm sorry if you found that obnoxious, but I'd rather not stress this point further. As far as I'm concerned it's marginal to the discussion. Besides, I really should have gone to sleep some two hours ago. Can you just confirm whether you understood my point (not agreement or disagreement, just understanding), and leave it at that?
Oh yes, I understood your point. I just disagree with it and disapprove of how you stated it :-).
