INTP is my Myers Briggs personality type. And yes, but not so much to gauge reactions so much as to help me refine my ideas. "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.'”
