Many of the best partiers I know are on the spectrum.
Now picking on a particular model distinction or something like that I could get on board with.
What kind of pilot would be taken seriously if they mix up such a basic aspect of professional knowledge? Jets and prop planes are very different beasts.
I can't think of any job where you can just casually mix up different classes of objects and not eventually have it result in some significant failure.
"Why did you feed the mules and not the horses?" "Don't be so autistic. I bet you're a blast a parties"
"Why did you give me cheeseburgers? The customer ordered plain burgers." "Don't be so autistic. I bet you're a blast at parties"
Yes, being specific about the things you work with is generally a sign that someone is good at their job, but it generally doesn't have much to do with autism. But I guess being condescending is what makes a good cocktail party companion?
A turbine engine may be a jet engine or it may not in the case of a turboprop.
Jet aircraft use jet propulsion not propeller propulsion.
A jet gets significant thrust from exhaust gases, a turboprop gets almost none from exhaust gases, some turboprops actually are reversed intake in the rear pushing exhaust out the front like the PT6.
Turbofans are considered jet propulsion as the both the exhaust gas and fan gas are pushing though an exhaust orifice rather than the fan being in open air as is the case with a turbo-prop.
