This is Ti-lead cognition:



"boil things down to the most fundamental truths, what are we sure is true and then reason up from there."

That's definitely not Ni-lead. Ni-lead does not have a cognition or concern for objective, scientific truth but one's own rich, unconventional, highly nuanced inner world. Ni/Te converts inner worlds into new modes of thought. Ni/Fe converts inner worlds into new modes of expression.

Musk is talking about hard-headed data collection. This is elaborated on in another interview, as follows:

...

Ti-data collection comprises Musk's primary strength and continued point of awareness:



The interviewer to Musk:

“You took me on a tour of space x. The most impressive thing was you knew every detail of the rocket and every piece of engineering that went into it.”

Musk goes on to explain that he doesn't have a mind for the business end of things. Not Te-lead. Te-lead doesn't take in every detail like that.

This interview highlights Se-creative:



5:00-5:50

The interviewer: “How should somebody figure out how they can be most useful?”

Musk: “whatever this thing is you are trying to create, what would be the utility delta compared to the current state of the art times how many people it would effect. That’s what I think having something that makes a big difference, but effects a small to moderate number of people is great, but as is something that makes a small difference but effects a vast number of people….It’s really about trying to be useful and matter.”

It's pretty straightforward. Ti-lead collects data and Se-creative infuses data with the energy/force to make an impact/change/effect. Easily LSI-Se.

Actually Ni lead people can very much have a concern for objective, scientific truth - quite some ILI-Te's I've known care a LOT about that.

The quote on its own doesn't disprove Ni ego whatsoever.

He's said before that he's okay with business too. A possible argument for ILI-Te over LIE-Ni though with the details stuff, sure.

That's anything but straightforward lol... It is nonsensical to claim that only Se egos care about making an impact in any way whatsoever.
