What is it that NTPs are missing then? I follow your analogy but I don't know what it explains exactly.
Just because someone has a visceral reaction doesn't mean I think they are stupid. I'm not that judgmental.
ENTP it comes out as devils advocate and INTP it comes out as correcting accurately.
i guess my demeanor downplays IQ and just intelligence in general which keeps them off of a defensive standpoint and actually puts them in a standpoint where they raise up IQ or intelligence with me. and the way that NTPs tend to be more correcting it puts an emphasis on "intelligence"and intelligence gets downplayed...knocked.
