Yeah, I said it, but it's more subtle than just that. You're a sculptor; think of it like this:
The difference between normal and autistic is like two sculptures, each made from a 1-pound block of clay. But it's not just that autistics work the clay into a different, more symmetric shape.
Normal people make a sculpture about as high as it is wide. But for autistics, most of the surface directly under the sculpture has just a thin layer of clay over it, a small part if it is high, and at one specific place, it's extremely high.
