I can see this is going to be the most depressing thread on the whole forum...
The follow up to that Lorre quote was;
Added fellow e.p. Bill Prady: “[Sheldon] has made [a] choice that work and all of that is where he finds his passion.”
Lorre acknowledged that Jim Parsons and Kaley Cuoco have “become a natural comic pairing because [Penny] can tell him the truth. She’s not intimidated by him. They bounce off each other beautifully.”
So they were quite set in the Sheldon characterization of one for whom "the quest for truth" was all that mattered. Which was an old and noble concept. That's gone out the window at considerable velocity...

Interesting stuff in there about his contributions to the Sheldon character.
