    -IEI are indeed rare, but you somehow were able to increase that likelihood by going to places where they're more likely to be present, thus increasing the distribution among the "population"
    Why are you talking about mathematical absoluteness, then in the above post you put THREE things on a list of “TWO things”?....

    I started with 2 ideas, then in the middle of writing I had another thought but I didn't remember I had written "2 things" so...
    The mathematical absoluteness means just that it's not relative, and doesnt' depend on peoples opinion.

    It's like saying that if you meet 17 people, at least 2 of them will have the same type. No matter the circumstances, nor your personal opinion.
    Sometimes you don't have motivation because you lack purpose.
    Sometimes you don't have purpose, because you lack self-knowledge
    Sometimes you don't have self-knowledge because you lack love
    Sometimes you don't have love because you lack self-love
    Sometimes you don't have self-love because you lack guess what? Ask Gulenko!!

    I commented that @sbbds's reply was "perfect" because it was a 4D Se person, 3D Ti creatively noticing a Ti flaw in a statement.

    I wasn't being critical. This thread is good.

    Still though, why do you care about being absolute when like others said, 1/250 seems arbitrary?

    1/250 works like a threshold. By assuming this value I can get to a threshold of how many people you need to come into contact to be 99% sure of meeting bla bla bla

    Once you know the most accurate distribution of types you can get to a better understanding of the environment. But for instance, I'm only in the mathematical realm, where it's not really necessary to know the actual distributions, given that they are reasonable.

    Notice that a type with 1/16 occurrence is still not very common, and you get to the idealistic number 73. This is gold really

    Ok but your choice of 1/250 is still arbitrary or based on your own subjective sense of an appropriate value.

    As an IEE, i have no fucking idea where you can find guys like me. But I know a few and they're all great musicians (myself included ). I don't know if IEE men are that common, just like SLI women. I've seen more EII men and LSE women though.
