Bluh. I think the two-subtypes system (that's what accepting/producing refers to, as the subtypes are the "accepting" (base function) and "producing" (creative function) subtypes) is just a confused and inconsistent mess.

You could probably work it just looking strictly at their descriptions and fitting yourself to whichever has the lesser amount of flat contradictions of reality
