I worked with a very autistic chap once. The most incredible mind and considering his levels of autism he was very self aware. He said that he should be treated like a computer when it came to work. Clear instructions, no ambiguity and with a clear reason. If the reason did not make sense then that could be an issue and we would discuss.

The fact that he wanted to be given clear reasons means he did not in fact want to be treated like a computer. Computers do whatever they are told exactly with no thought to reason whatsoever.
