He's a very smart guy, yes, but when I started seeing these things happen so often from someone who I thought should know better it's when I started revisiting the ideas that people brought up re. him being NF. I don't think it's just "ignoring Te" I think it's an analytic lack . . . because yes, Ti leads will sometimes cherry-pick data too, and can emotionally defend half-cocked ideas too at times, but he shouldn't still be doing that at the rate he does for his age/experience/knowledge level. He should be able to look at the actual data and re-evaluate when he's calm, not blinded by an argument or impassioned speech and correct his understanding, but he doesn't.
