Is it necessary to be just a touch autistic in order to create a detailed fantasy world?

Doing so seems to require an obsessive attention to detail that aligns perfectly with classical descriptions of autism.

Is there anything comparable to Middle Earth pre-Tolkien? Did he single-handedly "create" (popularize) high fantasy?
