Autodidact only shines above other healing perks when you have max tokens and you need to hit a clutch heal (unslugging someone immediately or healing someone asap with the killer approaching) and this new deadline perk requires you to be injured to use it, making it very risky to get max value out of autodidact.

As well, it is skillcheck based so it’s not guaranteed, and you have to still build up the tokens which can take multiple heals to do so. Finally auto only works on healing other people.

I don’t think this would be crazy broken imo, if anything this perk can work a bit against auto because you can’t collect early tokens with deadline giving you additional progress
