Probably because it's a basic text for newcomers to MBTI but doesn't deal with much of the nuance or more complicated function use and such as what we discuss here.

That is not to say it's not useful -- I think the Tiegers' texts serve very well for MBTI beginners and are very easy to understand. They did a lot to popularize MBTI and I would recommend them to people who are just starting out.
