I'm a little lost on where you are getting this from, from that particular page.

The two faces described are usually the inner face and the outer face -- i.e., a pair of Introverted functions and a pair of Extroverted functions -- not full types like you've both listed. Did I miss something?

I found it interesting when I read about it a year or two ago.

The expected external face (NeFe) seems to fit me pretty well. I only get hard-assed when I'm around people I trust or know can handle it. Otherwise you just get to see the goofy/whimsy/non-offensive "possibility" style thinking, and also a sort of slightly formal kindness based on the expectations of the community, since being warm spontaneously sometimes unsettles me.

Inside I have an TiSi face -- I'm both crunching data every second (sort of like a continue recompile of my model(s) of reality or some component of it) and also comparing what exists now with what came before... which leads to a heightened awareness of change as well as a sadness at watching things pass away.

I was wondering wht the [alternating] functions with the same attitude were called. "Face" make a lot of sense. Should have figured it was another body part, as the Dom/Inferior are called "spine", and Aux/Ter. are called "arm". I've also heard of "loop", and I've seen it used on both the face, and one of the other pairs.
