So, if people with AS and "NTs" would change places in terms of number (and then being and "NT" would be considered a syndrome most likely) do you think the world would be better or worse?

I personally think it would be neither better nor worse. Any large group of people (especially numbering in the billions) will have definite problems, so while we may have different problems as this NT-laden world, the problems would still be just as big, if not bigger.

I don't know, ppl on the spectrum aren't all the same even though they share some of the same neurological disorders.

Probably quiet, less chatty, and not enough jobs to fill in like nursing, doctors, secretaries as those require flexibility. Maybe lot's of pets would be adopted, music would all be different, and ppl would get to wear whatever they wanted.

The world would certainly be quite different, for better or worse I don't know.

Makes me wonder how wars would be fought, though. Maybe if this were an Aspie world, we'd settle our differences within World of Warcraft.

Instead of us posting on WP, it would be the remaining NT's.
