Basically Boukalov has done what Jung thought impossible, which is make a concrete model of the psyche. (from what I can tell, at least)
The more esoteric symbols (you can deduce this from their descriptions) seem to represent crosstype characteristics. The upside down symbols may be representative of pathological functions.
Boukalov is way ahead of the pack. Along with a small cadre of other socionics professionals, he is... doing XXXx stuff I guess... or something close to it.
I could easily see him as being more than just ENTp, at any rate. For one thing he doesn't really VI as either of the two subtypes.
