All of their markers for intelligence are suspect.

> including full-scale IQ and a PCA-based measure of g (Clarke et al., 2015), childhood IQ, college attendance, and years of education (Bulik-Sullivan et al., 2015), cognitive function in childhood and educational attainment (Hill et al., 2015), and verbal-numerical reasoning and educational level reached (Hagenaars et al., 2016)

I bet all those markers are more closely correlated with income levels in childhood than with occurrence of autism (or anything else).
