I don't see anything directly claiming it is autism in the wikiped link.

here are indications AS has been diagnosed more frequently in recent years, partly as a residual diagnosis for children of normal intelligence who do not have autism but have social difficulties.
unless you think my views overrule those of the specialists in charge of updating the DSM.
