I've been wondering if conditions such as Asperger's increases your Fi and Te use above normal, especially being that INTP is supposed to be one of the types that has it a lot (INTJ will already have Te and Fi high).
Like AS makes a person focus inward to his interests and routines, and often latch onto things most other people don't care about, and he will care deeply about them, and not like interference from ths outside world, but this will appear to be Fi-like behavior, and it will clash with the Ti and especially Fe.

This would be intersting as another explanation of ambiguities in type, and why people's function use might be different from expected, and why some professing INTP's may not seem like INTP's (As we see charged a lot these days).
