Anyone else bothered by the inconsistent conjugation here? Should be "optimism" and "pessimism" to go with "autism".

Yes. Or change "autism" to "autist".

Yeah you definitely could. Personally I wouldn't be bothered by it in a humorous context like this. But I know that's a term that does sometimes cause offence, so I chose the alternative.
