I’m not sure exactly what you mean by “he didn’t have … any sense of perspective or way of making plans that would work out or way of accurately judging others”. Did he have a form of high-functioning autism or Asperger’s?
Yes I have thought that Asperger’s was a possibility but along with something else. In any case I seems to me that book smarts and street smarts does not cover the spectrum of what we call intelligence. It is like, as an analogy, someone knows how to add and how to multiple but has no idea when it is appropriate to add and when it is appropriate to multiple.
