I believe a lot of these social issues are due to lack of understanding between society vs. a "genius". But if 20%+ of the population are on the same wave length, they may not feel so alienated. An individual's "social issues" may not be a problem for 20%+ of the population, so it may not longer be an issue.

This is a good point, although if being intelligent is correlated with being on the autistic spectrum in any way, then it doesn't really matter how many people have the same level of intelligence/condition/personality. As someone who's on the spectrum myself, I can say that you could put ten or so people with high functionality autism or what not in a room together and they'd still find it difficult to socialise.
