@MostlyHarmless A PBS has new documentary out: "In a Different Key", https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/new-documentary-in-a-different-key-follows-first-person-ever-diagnosed-with-autism, Donald Triplett. He was accepted in his community and went to school and worked at the local bank. His parents were wealthy and privileged and made sure Don was treated well and looked after. Ditto for Bill Gates. So - your little list of privileges is dead on.
New documentary 'In A Different Key' follows first person ever diagnosed with autism

The prevalence of autism in the United States has increased dramatically over the last few decades, and that’s coincided with a new understanding of just how broad the spectrum is. This is explored in a new film called "In A Different Key," which features Don Triplett, the first person diagnosed with autism. Filmmakers Caren Zucker and John Donvan joined Geoff Bennett to discuss the project.
