You did mention making useful predictions with your 5 color types, which was why I wasn’t afraid to go with horoscopes as an example.
That’s paraphrase seems to have taken quite a leap in what I was trying to say. I can elaborate if you’d like. It’s just that this post doesn’t appear much different from other personality tests that group people into categories. Psychology used to have a similar approach of trying to categorize people, but as they make more advance and learn how different everybody is from each other. They have learned to have a more open approach to people rather than a category to put them in and work from a bias to determine what steps to do next.
I see. I think I understand where the disconnect is here then. I’m making a claim that personality tests such as MBTI do not appear to be useful in general, and are potentially more harmful than they are helpful. My logic behind this is that it’s basically a way to form tribes, and a way to create more bias. My example on psychologists in the reply just before this one is along the lines of what I’m thinking.
