Well, since everyone has some form of psychological disorder in this show, shouldn't we add it to everyone? Rei's (as are everyone elses) lack of social skills are explained and are therefore not ambiguous, leaving little room for the trope. The existing justification for the trope was poor and with it now that you've also deleted it, what is there left except simply having it there? There's already more specific tropes for Rei (and other characters) that relate to mental disorders, and having both unambigious tropes and ambigious tropes would be contradicting.

EDIT: I took the liberty of removing the YMMV Trope you mentioned earlier (BrokenBase).
