Oversimplification (get that out of here). You can do both actions, but the ideologies of doing both actions are contrary to each other. You can say you are both a Solipsist and an Objecivist (or Empiricist) and provide arguments for both, but you can't actually philosophically be both at the same time, because their foundations openly conflict.
The LII values strong and devalues strong . As you've said, LII prefers to use , and thus ideologically aligns with , while the LII doesn't prefer , and thus ideologically dissociates from . is used by the LII as a defense, to fight off people attempting to bring the conversation or the project around to a perspective. It is used for the sole purpose of relaying why the Ego functions are better than it, and that is why the Id Block is often seen in a person as a sort of personal mockery of the elements in that position.
I might add that your passage comes straight from socionics texts and shows the dangers of swallowing whole unverified ideas w/o first chewing them over to see if there really is anything of substance. The bolded part in particular is ridiculous! I enjoy poking fun at Te as much as any intelligent person, but I also do useful, though maybe less enjoyable, things with Te.
