Imagine being the ruler of that city and letting him get “cured” instead of having him infodump / give daily reports about this.
Lord Vetinari would have him on the city payroll.
“You love the boats. I do not, but I love what they mean.” sweeping gesture toward the window
“Really Havelock, why do you suffer such a fool on the city payroll?”
“My dear Margolotta, for the pittance I pay the man, he does the work of 10 others. Fool he may be, but he is an accurate fool.”

Damn, and they even pathologized it. I guess some things never change.
Maybe we should pathologize neurotypicals’ tendencies to pathologize anything they can’t relate to.

“Look, he said he knows where all the fruit bearing trees in this forest are. Not a lot of them, all of them. He pointed out a squirrel the other day and told it he was glad to see that it made it through the winter. I don’t know how he does it, but if he says we have to move because the squirrels are starting to move to new trees, who am I to argue? We move.”
This feels spot on.
Add star constellations and telling immersive stories while guarding the fire at night to the list.
Don’t forget putting entirely too much effort into building contraptions with sticks, clay, wood, rope, etc. Somebody had to invent the forge bellows.
What did that doctor do to him?
Small procedure involving a ball peen hammer and metal spike applied to the back of the eye socket we would recognize today as a lobotomy.
Maybe. I don’t know shit about it.
