Does autism aid your creativity?

To clarify - by creative abilities you do not mean art/craft only, correct?

If yes then:

1. Ability to spot inconsistencies, and to come up with solutions for many things.

2. Massive database of things my senses collected so far makes playing with my imagination even more entertaining. I am not sure if my imagination would be different if I wasn't autistic, but I read about a special case autistic one UK professor wrote in his book, where he speculated that improved spatial perception at the expense of speech recognition gave him a very vivid imagination. My case in regard to physical parameters is very similar

TBH creative problem solving is also a component of design, so it's not like the traditionally creative door is shut to you just because you don't have an interest to go through it. Sorry, I love metaphor. I think if you are somewhere between a natural architect, engineer, and curator you probably fall on as near to having a 50/50 "left hand brain /righthand brain".
