the autistic love for the purity of rules creates a real risk of snitchdom, so it's important that the rule "no snitching" gets in there early you don't want to lean on "snitches get stitches", if anything a chance to take on risk in defense of the rules makes it more attractive

I think "no snitching" problem is actually complicated IMO

I think it is somehow vaguely isomorphic to the "hotdogging good cop" problem

You know the popular procedural plot template that is basically "a good honest cop that wants to Make Things Right and Stop The Evil has to break procedure and also likely law to succeed"?

that thing. Reasonable people understand that "procedure" is there for a reason and that "at a scale" a cop that bends the rules is just a thug with a fancy uniform, but the character is still somehow sympathetic

Same with "no snitching", like, there are good arguments to be made in its favor, but there it is also not exactly hard to concoct a scenario where snitching is apparently "correct" and sympathetic

right, which is part of the tragedy of autism in general, where autists try to actually follow rules and implement principles where normies treat them as fungible weights in an extremely sloppy constraint solving problem

also children (at least mine). My little daughter once said extremely earnestly “I love rules!”
