Like I said, I agree with him in this case. I am somewhat Keirsey biased because his type descriptions really do match Jung's processes, even though it is never directly stated how they match.
The main part where I disagree with him is how he types celebrities and historical figures -- Shakespeare being one of the exceptions. It's just one of those rare cases where Keirsey doesn't create the mental image of the NT temperament being people of science.
Kiersey departs from Jung quite markedly. And from Myers, despite hijacking her 4-letter system derived from Jung's original work.
Jung was against typing people other than in a clinical context....
And Keirsey don't make any clinical applications in his populist works
