I think I found out why Notch sold Minecraft.

I have an 8 year old Son who plays Minecraft with his friends almost every day.  He details to me his experience with the game all the time and its crazy the things that come up from those discussions (mostly him talking and me sort of listening.  Even if it was not just kids, I have seen many QA sessions like this where people would ask the oddest questions.  When it kids it just goes to another level because what is important to them is not the same as it is for adults.

If my child asked a group of adults how many of them had autism, ... I'm not going to finish that sentance.

To be fair, it seemed like that kid may have had autism himself. He obviously looked up to the guys there (and possibly interested in developing games) and was probably hoping that at least one of them also had autism (and that it helped them with game development).

While some of it was cringe-y, a lot just seemed to stem from people not knowing how to talk to and deal with kids (or technical issues).

I'm almost sure that kid didn't have autism. He was just being a dick.
