Jeez -- pure Prestige sounds like me in middle school.Marm suggested I write to the folks at the site to get an answer to my question, so I did.
Within less than 24 hours, they sent me a delightful reply -- I thought it was really nice of them to directly explain everything to me, and it means they're willing to talk about their type theory if you have questions.
Here is what they had to say about the 7 "double" types (e.g., "power-power").
So basically what we have here is similar to the prim-tert loop in MBTI, maybe -- instead of balancing our type with a secondary, we reinforce the primary somehow and "double down" essentially when we should be flexing and looking for another way around.
I suspect they've gotten this question before, since they sent me a PDF. I'll try to upload a JPG of it later.
Anyway, there are 42 distinct "regular" types, + the 7 "double trouble" categories that define someone via their primary at a stress point.
EDIT: Note that I'm not sure if I agree with them -- I don't know if I really go all "Anarchy" on things when I'm stressed, for example -- but anyway that's their take on it.
EDIT: Here's the image.

Maybe these apply better to what we'd usually describe as "unhealthy" people of each type.

Lol so many of these are in all caps.
Perhaps this is obvious to many (it seems like it's obvious to [MENTION=6877]Marmotini[/MENTION] at least), but this is specifically aimed at looking at how you naturally trigger fascination in others. This is something that has become extremely important to me due to recent events(some of you know why). So it seems quite independent of MBTI and enneagram, which are are extremely focused on internal processes. There are many, many systems for analyzing people, and they don't all map onto each other (no matter how much Ti might want to unify things).

There appear to be dichotomies here....such as mystique vs passionate or trust vs rebellion. That's odd for me since passionate was a close 3rd to mystique & rebellion for me (which were technically tied). With trust being my weak point, if we were to use the MBTI/Jungian model for the ego, then I'd more properly be
rebellion - dom
mystique - aux
passion - tert
trust - inferior
However, I do think the test is accurate in giving me mystique first.
Does anyone see this pattern in their results?

Where does it show it was a close third?
Yup. I found it very interesting to score Passion and Mystique as my 'dom' and 'aux', as they do appear to be dichotomies, but...you know, it does explain the I/E issue I've always had. I scored just as much on Rebellion as I did on Mystique though and like yourself I have Trust as my dormant. So:
Passion- dom
Mystique- aux or tert
Rebellion - aux or tert
Trust - inferior
What about the other triggers? I scored Prestige as my 4th trigger, then followed by Power = Alarm.
