Invalidated hypothesis, but I sincerely believe that anyone who has ever done anything remotely meaningful which moved the needle for human civilization, or developing our collective consciousness, was autistic or at least neurodivergent.

Not sure what you consider "moved the needle for human civilization", but there's important physicists who didn't fit the on-the-spectrum diagnosis. Newton, yeah, but there's various 20th century people more well-rounded. Halley, who "tended" to Newton in some ways, fits the well-rounded description.

I never studied philosophy or philosophers, but I suspect the most well-known of that group, or of significant religions persuasion were more charismatic. Not that they were nice people, but they had to be outgoing to be remembered.
