I completely agree.

Kiersey was correct that, even though the theories contradict, the observations of the two systems correlate.

As a side point, in the
Please Understand Me II notes, Keirsey talks about how the ESTJ and the ENTJ are vastly different, as opposed to MBTT, which sees these two types as very similar.
