I don't want to sound negative or discredit this contributor but having Asperger syndrome "helps". I got lost deep diving into several topics to the point where I spent almost all of my free time for a couple of years trying to understand each of them as much as possible.

That can lead to very positive output. The flip side is that my mind starts going in circles repeating the same thoughts over and over again.

The internet lingo for this is "Weaponized Autism".

Nothing wrong with being neurodivergent, don't see why this would discredit the contributor.
