I loved this piece. When I saw the title hit my notifications I hopped into Q to read and process it for publication. I made a few nits which I hope are ok with you. Feel free to revert them if you prefer. I am also INTP. I've been meaning to take a big 5 test. This is from a story of mine last year: "INTP’s 'focus on ideas and concepts rather than facts and details;' INTP’s 'prefer to be spontaneous and flexible rather than planned and organized;' INTP 'minds are complicated and active' — we 'go to great mental lengths trying to devise ingenious solutions to interesting problems;' INTP’s are 'typically non-traditional, and more likely to reason out their own individual way of doing things than to follow the crowd;' non-conformity is our natural state of being — it is not something we practice to shock others or make a statement. We 'tend to share thoughts that are not fully developed, using others as a sounding board for ideas and theories in a debate against themselves rather than as actual conversation partners,' making us 'appear unreliable, but in reality no one is more enthusiastic and capable of spotting a problem, drilling through the endless factors and details that encompass the issue and developing a unique and viable solution — just don’t expect punctual progress reports.'

'When INTP’s are particularly excited, the conversation can border on incoherence as they try to explain the daisy-chain of logical conclusions that led to the formation of their latest idea.'”
