He honestly needs his own "Born Sexy Yesterday" type category, "Born Autistic and Nobel" or something...

As an autist in a sales job: One does not need to experience emotions to anticipate the needs of others.
I'm also autistic. There's a lot more of the thing they call emotion going into a process like that than we anticipate.
