What doesn't work (for the system and owner of system) will be discarded, data and information that doesn't suit its main agenda - I don't see them listening or handling info that doesn't align with its goals much at all - even if it's 100% right.
Yeah 'they just want your money' is true of course but naive. It's often not the be-end-all even if it appears that way. At first maybe that's what Te wanted of course, but remember Te is dynamic. So maybe it wanted that in the beginning, but it also wanted to see you suffer because it doesn't like you and is repulsed by you (Te and Fi mixed) It already is profitable enough in a way that satisfies the Fi dualistic side, so it's different now. Then it wants your money again so it needs to put on some 2D Fe role to try and dupe you again. Once the owner and creator of the system... I mean the goals can change so often, that is all part of the dynamicism. Perhaps weirdly down the road it even wants to genuinely connect with you and earn your redemption, as surprising as that can be at times.
If I'm making Te-in-a-vacuum sound like a heartless narcissist- that's because it obviously is. It's a cold and cruel Nurse Ratched system, of course. But Te is also intrinsically tied with Fi the way Se and Ni are linked up... so I mean, it will also use the system to protect you if it personally likes you. You see this all this time in the Te work force, where a person gets ahead just because the boss and "higher ups" like her. No other reason. She's not that skillful or effiicient herself, maybe not even particularly nice or compassionate- that doesn't matter. It's Fe irrelevance to Fi in a sense. They just are attracted to her and like her and are devoted to her, so she's gonna get the job.
Okay I realize this is heavily critical but I still think I'm accurate and I am Fe/Ti valuer after all lolol.
