I would say it is the other way around: People who are poor at social interaction avoid it, some of those discover programming, and because they spend less time socializing they have more time to practice programming. So in my opinion it is not “Has structured thinking which causes poor social interactions” but “Has poor social interactions, retreats and learns structured thinking”.
