I should point out that these three types share some commonalities. But that, irregardless of all three of them being "loyal," that term is going to have a different meaning for some or all of them. "Loyalty" is going to have a different connotation for the ISTJ, especially in the context of "traditions" which you crossed out (the formatting wasn't saved when I copied and pasted).
In this view, if you cross out "traditions" then "loyalty" should be thrown out along with it. But that's not to cross out "loyalty" for the other two types, because the motives differ. An ISTJ is loyal out of a sense of duty and tradition. So you can't have loyalty, for that type, without duty and tradition to support it. The other types will be loyal for other reasons. Their motives may have more to do with, oh, needing to be needed, or something like that. You fill in the blank as to where your motives for loyalty lie. And you're not a J type anyway, right? At least we can be assured knowing that that has nothing to do with your loyalty.
Overall, ISTJ doesn't seem very likely to me, but don't assume I'm not dutiful. My dutifulness is the only reason I get anything done.
