PKU while annoying at times, can sometimes limit ones ability to work. I have found that even in drinking all my formula and being on diet I tend to be less able to handle physically demanding jobs. My energy comes from the formula and I have to take extra vitamins to supply energy. Also when I am working there is a fog and forgetfulness is a real problem. I have not been able to hold a job due to forgetfulness even on the diet. It varies case by case though. PKU people are just as intelligent as the next person and it may not make each person weak as it does me.
