Richard Aubrey….agreed, “the map is not the territory,” and it’s important to look at the specific individual in whatever case, not just some categorization of him/her. However, I think the categorization schemes are extremely valuable in getting people to understand just how wide the range of personality types is, and that the person sitting across from you may have an internal world quite different from your own.

David Foster.
Not unless they picked that seat at random and sat down without asking permission.
I was referring to a voluntary association, you and the other person.
Sufficiently different internal landscapes manifest themselves externally. Just as certain people’s body odor is a function of metabolism, diet, hormones, the actions of a mesomorph–speaking personality-wise–would look different from those of an ectomorph. You would be more likely to be sitting with one than random, and less likely to be sitting with the other, other than random. Some wouldn’t want to sit with you and others you wouldn’t want to sit with. So the sitter-across-the-table is from a cohort excluding substantial numbers of different personality types.
