Kleefstra Syndrome?

I saw this CNN article that said some types of autism are caused by "Kleefstra Syndrome"
I have heard of most developmental conditions like the Trisomy conditions like Downs,Edwards or Patau's and other things like Retts but had never ever heard of Kleestra Syndrome.
And certainly never heard it caused autism or as the article phrased it,types of autism.
Anyone else ever hear of this?

I wonder if the "autism spectrum" will eventually become very narrowed down and not be as much of a "spectrum", as more of these genes are investigated and get their own diagnoses. I don't think that'd be a bad thing though, since that'd mean people with certain genes could have better treatments and accommodations catered to them. I'd certainly like to know what genes cause the autism that runs in my family, what comorbities are associated with it, and how different treatment may be for the genes I have.
That's why I hate technicalities and prefer idiot savant anyway,I choose to identify as idiot savant and fu#% the doctors
