Looks like the reason these arguments you're posting go on for so long is because you're both only providing arguments which are convincing to yourselves, and not to the other person, who devalues them.

I find this snippet (from Wikipedia) works for showing the difference between theory and hypothesis, even if it's not a formal definition:



By this socionics' model of personality is a theory, as it was based on empirical observation. Intertype relations are arguably largely hypothetical, since they're based on theoretical model - but descriptions of how these relations usually work are probably based on observation, which might have confirmed the original hypothesis or not.

So hypothetically it would be better to give IEE a definition instead of taking it personally. Of course, hypothetically it would be highly unlikely for IEI and unlikely for EIE to do so (Fe >> Te). Theoretically, you two have all functions in correcting attitude and out-of-sync "vital rings". Hypothetically, you two are going to keep arguing in circles.
Thank you, Aiss
