If and when I notice people arguing that, I will ask them where they are getting this idea.
Temple Grandin has said it several times in her presentations.
Personally, I think it's a bunch of bunkum.
But in the decade or so I've been paying attention to "autistic community" online, I've heard it put forth plenty of times, along with the statement that if there weren't people with autism, mankind would still be living in caves. Which I also think is bunkum.
