Years ago when first encountering MBTI I typed as ENTP, but I've never considered ILE nor has anyone thought I was one. My dad is an actual ILE and the difference in the base function is clear as day while the creative is the same.

Here's the Talanov test I did once for fun, I wouldn't take it very seriously but the IE strength profile is interesting how it agrees with Gulenko's Model G and the dimensionality theory in how the demo Te is actually stronger than the creative Ti.

Yep. I could have easily mistaken my old SLE best friend for SLI. I actually did mistype her as LSE at one point. She was SLE-Ti, but her Ti was so strong she just looked like a laid-back rational.
