Well Russian socionics sites, such as socionics.org, also refer to "Jack London" - LIE - as "ENTJ", "Zhukov" - SLE - as "ESTP" etc.

As far as I know, Ganin's contribution - if indeed it was his - was simply to use small "p" and "j" to underline that he was talking of socionics types rather than Myers-Briggs.

I disagree with almost everything else you wrote, btw.
