SLE: Will get power because they can pretend to be tough
IEI: Will get power because they can pretend to be good
LSI: Will get power because they can pretend to be bureacratic
EIE: Will get power because they can pretend to be visionary
That’s nonsense. No type “pretends” to use their ego because the lead function is what drives the person, hence being called the base. Why pretend something when you already know how to use it? It’s the suggestive function which is the pretender to the throne. People “pretend” to use their suggestive function because it’s the weakest but valued and due to its’ weakness, the person doesn’t know how to use it. It’s shooting in the dark so you have to fake it.

SLE pretends to be introspective (Ni), LSI pretends to be merrymaking (Fe), EIE pretends to be analytical (Ti), IEI pretends to be tough (Se).
