You think wrong. Psychologists do use a heightened sensitivity to injustice as a diagnostic criterion when trying to see if someone has ASD.
And to highjack this comment as well to correct the record on your view of empathy and autism: empathy can be roughly divvied up into cognitive empathy (reasoning why someone is feeling a certain way) and emotional empathy (recognizing that someone is feeling a certain way). The former strongly depends on one’s theory of mind, which tends to be under developed in people with ASD. Saying that someone with autism has “reduced empathy” is reductive and can lead to wrong conclusions (for example, one could conclude that autistic people care less about justice).
