Autistic spectrum people are amazing. At age 6 Robert could not talk, then the next day he did (right after he hit his head severely on the bookcase). At age 10 he could not ride a bike then the next day he did.

My idea is that they have so much redundency in their neurons that once a few extra neurons that caused confusion are reabsorbed, the activity that presented difficulty suddenly becomes unencumbered.
