Not autistic, but if that's what autism is I certainly wouldn't want a cure for having a personality. God forbid somebody find something visually appealing, wouldn't that be a crime against the raw efficiency of making everything on the planet a drab grey box. It's a stupid vanity project with no practical purpose, if billions are going to be wasted on it anyways why not let it be eye-pleasing?
