It's worth noting that we went a long way when it comes to diagnosing autism/ASD/ADD since 2000 or even 2008 and we know that lots of neurodiversive people remained undiagnosed because of mismatching characteristics (especially among young girls). Also, Stallman suffers from hyperacusis, which is clearly described in "Free as in Freedom". Setting a diagnosis is a job for a specialist, but his acknowledgement of "a few of the characteristics" may actually be a much stronger hint than you believe (or even he does, especially if the main example he gives is the one about rhythm :P).
