Literally just coping this whole thread. It's obvious why sold his shares with my worldview, but it doesn't make any sense with what yourself said, thus "Idk"
The best you and I can do wrt to this particular point is to make an inference through the lens of our worldviews, since neither of us can be sure about his motivations. It's "obvious" to you, but you don't know, just like I don't know.
Newton thought he was serving God and used this as his devotion.
And there you have it. He found a purpose greater than rawdogging and nutting in some noblewoman to pump out baby Isaacs.
I always say religion is the ultimate and final cope, but it also the one exception to the rule of existing for reproductive success. Even if Newton wan NT (which he definitely was not), him devoting his life to is what I would consider to serve the same function reproduction does to us in the frameworks we use. Having kids is important for humans because it is seen as natural, what we owe to society, what our ancestors fought for, and some purpose in this life. Religion fills that role for people and so much more. So the guiding principles and how we rationalize them are still the same.
How do you know he was ND? Your certainty in Newton being ND is others reporting his lack of passion? Lack of passion -> ND. Really bro? That's one hell of a leap. You're missing some serious steps.
And religion serving the role of reproduction? What? This contradicts your worldview that all of life's purpose is to procreate. You can't just make up exceptions to serve your argument. Your DNA doesn't know or care about the reasons why you're resisting the program to replicate. It just wants you to replicate.
As for Tesla himself didn't think he had free will and slaves to biology/the universe at large.

I realized he was 6'2" fucking tall. Brutal, it is fucking over.
With all due respect to a brilliant dead man who can't elaborate and defend his worldview, that's just his opinion. Claims about free will and determinism etc. have no proof, which is why we keep debating the subject. His opinion on the subject is no more/less valuable than any other philosopher's or scientist's. They all knew the arguments, I'm sure. It's just a matter of which team you're on.
Anyways, Tesla's family has a history of mental disorders like his brother had secere hallucinations and his father acted out many people that talked to one another (if I had to guess, I would say schizophrenia). Tesla himself had OCD and had hallucinations where he would see objects that were mentioned with his imagination and couldn't tell if they were real or imagined, and didn't know where he was at many times. Tesla was a true mentalcel.
Interesting.
Bad News for the Highly Intelligent
Superior IQs are associated with mental and physical disorders, research suggestswww.scientificamerican.com
25% of the people in their sample didn't respond, but 75% is good enough. Of the remaining 75%, just over a quarter were formally diagnosed with mood disorders, with 20% reporting anxiety disorder (doesn't specify type). This leaves over half of the sample (~54%) who responded reporting no disorders, diagnosed or otherwise. That's a big fucking deal here.
This also doesn't break down the disorders to determine what percentage of that 46% is debilitating and severely impairs function. You can be very mildly autistic or you can be on the extreme end of the spectrum. Both would get lumped in with the 26%.
All of this is besides the point you were making, however. None of the above here says anything to indicate something as outrageous as claiming that these problems "remove your biological programming." Even granting if that were true, it wouldn't explain why people with Down syndrome get horny and have sex. You would think the evolutionary programming would want to correct such a colossal fuck-up and shut off the reproduction subroutines, but NOPE.
This is also the case among higher iq population ethnic groups, like ashkenazi Jews, who have a higher iq on average than 117. This isn't that smart but it would mean that a larger percentage of them will have very high iq in a normal dstribution. That is exactly what we see.

This report is about the rates of depression amongst the Jewish population. Depression isn't even classified as neurodivergent.
And the Jewish IQ claim is a myth that keeps getting perpetuated. The average IQ of the Jewish population is the same as rest of the
