IT is a profession that attracts that type of personality. From autism to assholes. "Technically correct" is the best kind of correct for technology. Technology is an often "exacting" science in the eyes of those individuals even when it isn't exacting, it's just their strongly held preference or belief. If you go into the profession, you will not be able to avoid it in a corporate environment. If it isn't something you feel you could handle and burn your way through, consider small teams, non-IT companies, or consulting/running your own business. But these kind of people exist in every profession as do autistic individuals and assholes. It's part of being an adult and improving your interpersonal skills. There have been many lone wolves who have created great things in our world. Don't discount them. You would not be "better off".
