I wasn't talking about you people, or even INFPs in general. That's not even intuition dominant.
Who are 'you people'? lol.

You don't have to lack skills on one side of dichotomy to prefer the other.
The whole idea of an Fe approach to a math problem is kinda absurd.
I didn't oversimplify anything. I described people I knew. Some of you are misinterpreting that as a description of types.
It's difficult for me to imagine what an Fe often goes through when broaching a math problem. But from what I understand, the Fe tries to humanize everything. Imagine if you would a rising sun emanating happy little rays of light and with a smiley face drawn on it, and myriad other examples.
I was responding to:
An EFJ approaching a math problem would just use Thinking (and iNtuition). They're not somehow limited by their preference for Fe in the average situation. It's not like an Fe dom can't realize that Fe isn't going to solve the problem for them...
If you really like hammers and someone asks you to tighten a screw, you're not gonna freak out because you can't use a hammer -- you'll just use a screwdriver.
My OP distinguishes pure types, not (for example) Fe types using Ti or some other function.
An Fe type using only Fe is not an example of a "pure type."
if you manage to make a realist out of mal123, I'll call you my fav super heroine
I am thinking about people I've known as examples of pure types; a few weeks ago, some here have declared Jung to be a "pure type."
I'm a Sensor, I'm terrible at maths, details and rote learning.
Discuss.
And to what pure type would you attribute him to?
