What if I don't find it abnormal and enjoy my autism?

The only thing I dislike is that people will attack me because they misread my body language.

Apparently having a resting bitch face is an unwritten crime in society.

I would be worried that by rewriting my brain's wiring to socialize better I lose my hyperfocus or heightened perception because you can't have it all.

Either you evolve to analyse other people or the world around, not both.

If I understand the research correctly, they have created viral code which runs the moral equivalent of

    update brain set syn_strength ×= 1.1 
    where src_region=med_prefront_ctx and dst_region=dorsal_raphae

in the brains of mice without affecting any surrounding tissue. Pretty impressive. Or actually, since the update remained dormant until activated, more like a trigger: create trigger fix_brain update brain ... when brain_juice_z > 0.8

Just a reminder that there is nothing new about reversing autism-like symptoms in mice.

And that autism in humans is not well-defined.

And that whether or not varying severities of autism should be perceived as a disorder or condition in need of a cure does not have a consensus among experts.
