This makes sense, if you have esoteric interests outside the range or regular people you will become isolated as it will be difficult to communicate with people.

I'm not a member of 99.9 or anything, but I tend to find it difficult to find similar interest to regular people. When I sense there is a possibility of a deep conversation I push the limits and test the person I'm talking with, usually it becomes clear quickly if they are in or not. If so we have an engaging satisfying conversation, if not we don't have much to talk about (I'm pretty boring).

There aren't many people who know what solipsism is, but when they do we can usually have a interesting conversation.
