I was just trying to say that the picture is complicated by his other features too, which doesn't exonerate him from his crimes...

I don't want individuals with the aforementionned disorders in any sane society. As for his would-be "contribution" to Singularity studies, I believe they (the studies) would have been almost equally prosperous as they are today without him. I know opinions here may differ, but I believe that this one should be taken into consideration as well.

Consider for example his collections of essays, Report from Planet 3 and Profiles of the Future.   It is a well selected list, but Arthur C Clarke should easily get an honourable mention if not a place on the Top 10 Singulatarians List.
