Even in cases in which the person in question exclusively partners with these latter groups.

Savant syndrome is not a disorder in the same way as autism is a disorder or dementia is a disorder.

You can get a sense of what being blind is like by closing and covering your eyes which provides a source of empathy because we can all project ourselves to that. But people who think they can project themselves into deafness are mistaken because you can't.
