1) I don't agree that Ts are more able (an MBTI faux pas, no?) to separate from their emotions. They are just less consciously oriented towards them, which makes their personal narrative include less about them. They are no less present, though, and they have no less effect on cognition.
I don't think this is true.
2) Being focused less on emotion most of the time actually makes T types less good at processing them (on average), not more. An F type is cognitively specialized towards thinking about emotion.
While I think this is partially true, I don't think it tells the fully story.
Fs are also far more consumed by their emotions.
3) An F type with a strong value against breaking is likely to be more determined than a T type.
I considered this as well, and I think there's some truth to it.
I don't know if it outweighs the other factors, though.
Particularly in interesting cases like ITJs, who have PiFi dominant loops, and ISTPs, who are so detached from their feelings, in general.
(I don't include INTPs, cuz, let's be real, INTPs are generally a bunch of wimps.)
I'm not trying to claim that F types would be better; I'm just saying it's not at all clear they'd be worse.
I see the point, I just don't think it's right.
I think there's a reason why everyone's been going with T-types.
And I did, and still would, put IFPs as probably better than NTPs (and maybe even ESTPs).

One of the odder things is that I think ISPs would be reasonably good at taking the physical torture, despite the fact that they have Se high in their functional ordering, which, in other cases (like ESPs), would make me think the person would not be suited to physical torture. I think it might be because the ISPs could go into their dominant loop, totally blocking out/negating the fact that they have auxiliary Se, and might even be able to use it for temporary (!) moments of reprieve, whereby they expunge all that physical abuse in an instant of intensity, and then go back to their introverted dominant loop. I don't think the ESPs would be able to do this in the same way; they'd be
too caught up in the physical sensations. Ok, enough thinking demented thoughts about torture for the night...
