I didn't want this to be lost in the shuffle of its thread, so I'm reposting this again.
I also wanted to give Psychdigg some credit for his idea..
This is pretty much 'blasphemy' in the world of Jungian functions. But I don't particularly care. So here it is:
Aside from the 'snarky' bits, there might be some merit to this interpretation. Judging 'internally' and perceiving 'externally' actually makes some sense. More generally, combining the extraverted and introverted versions of functions makes for a less complicated and potentially more valid system--gotta get the overall picture right before trying to make a theory that explains the details--so long as meaning, fidelity, and accuracy aren't sacrificed.
The view that I quoted may only speak from the Perceiving perspective--external perceiving, internal judging. A Judging perspective may look completely different, and I'm wondering what that perspective might be for each of the four functions.
So, thoughts?
Is there anything that this view doesn't account for? Does it speak to you or resonate with you? Is there merit in combining the extraverted and introverted versions of the functions?

There is no such thing as Fe, Ni, Te, Si These are all justifications for Jungs flawed dichotomous structuring of his categories.
Feeling is Introverted - it is "inside" If you are feeling something outside of your body you are probably doing something or somebody.
Intuition is Extroverted - etymologically Intuition originally meant "to see" Seeing is based on what is out there in the real world. If you are seeing "inside" of yourself you are really doing some visual thinking.
Sensation is Extroverted - it is practical. It refers to actions and movement. You move things in your environment - externally. If you are moving something inside your head it is called "thinking" or planning-first I'll do this, next I'll do that and then I'll do...
Thinking is Introverted. It is "inside" your brain. You are working with data that you have collected "in". If you are thinking in the external world you may be talking to yourself out loud and may be crazy.
