Yeah, then your Kanner's stats are wrong. By that definition most are HF.
Nah, around 3/4 of those with Kanner's are of the aloof type, which goes well into adulthood (however, there can be a bond formed with a caretaker, which can take some time); there's two members on this very thread who are of that type who have that label. Even if you read Kanner's paper on his highest-functioning individuals, they were socially isolated/withdrawn from people to a massive extent, even though they could work and drive.
The other 1/4 are of the passive to odd/eccentric type, those who are similar to those with AS.
The former appear to be in their own world, "Autism", whilst the others aren't.
