What autistic people struggle with is in not allowing for anomalies in a pattern, which implies that people are chained to a pattern of behavior and have no free will.

We begrudge people the right to be an exception.

Stereotypes are patterns, not laws, and the exceptions help you hone your understanding of those patterns. As if you had a massive state-cycle diagram in your head and it becomes increasingly complex over time.

I think that being able to balance those two concepts can lead to a bit of an autistic superpower. Being able to see the patterns, while maintaining disbelief.
