Like you said it is the fact that they are so similar (identical actually) and that should mean they get each other.
Actually this (i.e. they all suffer from ASD) means that both sides are similarly unable to see other people's point of view or to communicate successfully with other people. Some of my worst confrontations have been with people who I now recognise as being on the spectrum. Not only do they have difficulties understanding other people, they also have difficulties understanding themselves.
I'm sure that was the case with my family when I was growing up. Neither of my parents have ever apologised for anything, or even hinted that they may have been in the wrong. They are probably both on the spectrum but their characters are almost polar opposites (eg one obsessively tidy, the other a hoarder). As a teenager I used to fight them, but now we get on better but I just have their opposing emotional states fighting it out in my head!
Funnily enough, we are all very typical of our star signs too!
