Well, "severely low empathy" could also qualify. But a common characteristic for antisocials on the milder end of the spectrum is that what little emotion exists is incredibly fleeting. Up to & including rage. I can't even hold a grudge. I have as little regard for the joy of the people around me as I do their pain.
Which I suppose could answer your other question... I have hurt people in the process of other activities. But their pain was never a motivator. As I said, I'm no expert or professional; but there are plentiful explanations for your symptoms of stunted affect, manipulation, lying, & enjoying others' pain that have already been explored in your diagnostic workup. It is stupid of them to add another dx even though the symptoms are already right there.
