They function well when the baseline world around them maintains predictability. But contrary to others on the spectrum, they do really badly with rigid schedules and rules to follow. I am one of those. When busses don’t ride on time, I’m anxious, even if I don’t take the bus. But for the love of God don’t force me into any sort of schedule because it’ll run me of the rails.
