Now that I'm reading some of these responses, I'm thinking that SFs need NTs way less than anyone else. The talk about F types not needing T types I think is true. You can go very far in life just by being likable. I know people on here have witnessed situations where a competent yet quiet person was passed over for a more "likable" person.

In real life, most situations call for sensing or ethics of some kind, and talk about quantum physics or epistemology has almost no use lol.

I think I retract my earlier statement EIEs are not independent usually, NFs are even more useless than NTs. At NTs can develop software or work for tesla. But we get by with people skills alone. I think this puts us in a very dependent situation, but it's not really that obvious.
