Which Personality Type is the Most Abstract?

in Function Analysis

There is a lot of debate in the MBTI community about which personality type is the most abstract, or which cognitive functions are the most abstract.

ISFJ vs. ESFJ: The Differences

in Typing Dilemmas

ISFJ vs. ESFJ is another case of two personality types being close enough to each other that it can be hard to tell them apart.
