Connections integrate intellectual concepts at once, they're good for storytelling, rehearsing, teaching, and mitigating 'behind the scenes' activity to debate the best course of action. Paths are good for actually executing decisions and making destinies happen. They see what needs to be done more clearly. If you have a dominant path, you will dual-seek a connection; if you have a dominant connection, you will dual-seek a path.
It might seem like Ne would be a Connection, but ime it's a path because all the ideas the Ne-type gives off tend to be very useful if actually accomplished. Connections are more ideal and comforting. Connections tend to be intuitive, paths counter-intuitive. A good psychologist gives their patient direct orders all the time.
If you have connections w/o paths, you get lost, ultimately nothing changes or gets done. If you have paths w/o connections, you get lonely and won't be able to feel your humanity or overcome the opposition. Think of an extreme connection as a bunch of people locked together, they enjoy one another but can't do anything or go anywhere. An extreme path is one person walking alone down a dark forest road, without the support/connections of people they would eventually get mauled alive. Without the path, the extreme connection would backfire, people would get tired of each other and turn on one another.
