    Tangential, esoteric, circuitous. Hard to follow.
    Need extensive foundation.

    “The CIA uses the system like x.”
    “They don’t have clear understanding of the system.”

    We should stop anthropomorphizing institutions like that. The CIA does nothing. It’s merely a structure comprised of people that do. And among those people, there are certainly individuals who look deeper than others. Just because you use the system in a crude way for typing others in work environments, doesn’t necessarily mean that you can’t also use it for personal development in a more profound manner. I do that, so do you.

    That’s my two INTJ cents.
