Haight, your learning methodology (that you described in your example concerning the 'strike in baseball') is in much closer affinity with Ni-Te than Ti-Ne. This is the case because a dominant perceiving type (in this case Ni) is concerned wit collecting information thoroughly before making judgments. Introverted Perceivers (Ni and Si) tend to have their inner being defined by their perceptions, (because the introverted perceiving function is their strongest introverted faculty), and for this reason they tend to be very careful about the information they collect.
Secondly, you mention that you plan far ahead and plan very carefully too, I infer. Introverted Intuition is the most abstract of all faculties and therefore most future oriented. INJs tend to be the most careful planners because their perception is introverted. Thus, as aforementioned, the success of the INJ's interaction with external environment is paramount (again because perception is obviously concerned with the external environment, as that is all that could be perceived), and because the INJ's inner being is defined by perceptions, such task is deemed to be the most important. Hence, Ni tends to have a very intense focus on what 'my future and my path shall be like', and this explains why Introverted perceivers (both Introverted Intuitives and Introverted Sensors tend to be highly security conscious).
A type which is defined by Introverted Thinking and Extroverted Intuition would first of all be less concerned with collecting information carefully, but instead skip to making decisions as quickly and as accurately as possible in order to establish logical order. Very often the Introverted Thinking type establishes logical order too quickly, or in other words, makes decisions far too early, long before he has collected the adequate information. Secondly, the Ti-Ne type, tends not to see nearly as far into the future and less security conscious. The former is the case simply because he is much less intuitive than the Ni-Te type. The latter is the case because his strongest perceiving faculty is Extroverted rather than Introverted and for this reason his inner being is not defined by his perceptions.
Secondly, you mention that you would read a book about baseball and talk to people who may be knowledgeable about the game before preparing your answer. This is much more akin to Te than Ti because in this case you are relying on external methods of inquiry, such as expert opinion and other means of interaction with the environment in order to solve your problem. An Introverted Thinking type on the other han would turn inwards for his critical analysis. (This brings our focus back to the previously established notion that the Introverted Thinker encounters the grave risk of incurring false beliefs due to lack of adequate interaction with the external environment). This is very reminiscent of how the rationalist philosophers of the 17th century (Spinoza, Descartes and Leibniz) thought that they could deduce the system which outlines how the world functions through pure contemplation. This is emblematic of the Ti oriented school of thought. The rival school of thought to theirs was that of the empiricists, who insisted that as much of our inquiry as possible must clearly correspond with the external world, in fact our thoughts, many of the radical empiricists held, are unsound altogether unless we find confirmation for them in the external world. They are 'sophistry and non-sense', as David Hume used to say.
Finally, the last question you ought to consider is the following. His arguments lack the convincing power of reason. He can only profess or proclaim. His is the "voice crying in the wilderness." Psychological Types, P.402, Introverted Intuition.
This quote of Jung points out that Introverted Intuition, much like Introverted Thinking resides deep within one's psyche and therefore often compells one to believe that there is much validity to the thoughts entertained by the person of this type. Introverted Intuition however, unlike Introverted Thinking, is a perceiving function, it merely entertains hunches, it does not systemize ideas. Thus, as a result, it gives one a strong hunch that they are right, but does not exactly know how to explain one's rectitude. This, is very uncommon with Introverted Thinking, as the foremost goal of such a function is acquisition of internal logical order.
