I've seen people relate these personality types to star signs, saying people who believe in this stuff are similar. This actually makes me understand people who like astrology a lot more with the crazy sense of belonging I get when I see INTJ videos. I feel like it's easy to feel like an outsider when most people don't think the way you do, but this helps a lot.
Numbers 1, 3, and 5 don't apply to the INTJ. Correction (with sufficient reasons): Number 1 is false since INTJs have Te as their thinking function. This means they outsource thinking, specifically logic, and truth, to the environment/other people. That's the definition of extraverted thinking. They gather sources, etc., from the external world to use them to achieve their ultimate goal, which is whatever their apex function Ni has chosen to be. Te is a function more concerned with solving problems than understanding the mechanics or functionalities of things. That's Ti's job. Number 3 is false because Ti is logic or Logos, unlike Te. They usually don't like to reason logically but prefer to think rationally and find rational reasons that stem from already discovered facts. They consume logic. See reason for number 1. You're right that they rely on empirical evidence but they do primarily rely on that. They are masters of research and will soak up and go through massive amounts of information. That is what Te does. Instead of the "sword of logic," they utilize their inner flame, a will to power as Nietzsche called it which is Ni since Ni is basically willpower and a vision of themselves in the future and how the ultimate future (especially for them) would look. So, rationality not logic is their guide through life. By the way, Te is also strategic thinking (Ti is engineering thinking), basically. On a side note: you tend to mix several definitions of intuition together. Next time please be more precise when using these terms since there's intuition as a general cognitive function (Ni and Ne) and intuition that is developed through a deep understanding of things (see intuition of chess players, mathematicians, etc.), and of course instinct or gut feeling, whatever. Number 5 is false because that is by definition what Ne does. Extraverted intuition is about what will happen to the environment, following patterns in the external world, and discovering the future possible outcomes of the environment. Ne-Si operates on an axis to internalize facts (or knowledge) and extrapolate patterns. That's why Ne-user's intuition is externalized or basically outsourced. They perceive the environment with intuition. That's not what INTJs do since their intuition isn't projected to the external world but maintains within them. You're right that INTJs do have a rich inner world. They are usually idea generators and prefer to craft one perfect idea (which only highlights the fact that their intuition is introverted, hence Ni). Number 6 is false by extrapolation. The reasons were mentioned above. You're right that they do navigate through the complexities of life with a strategic mindset and prefer to solve problems. That's a trait all (especially abstract) thinkers share. All NT types in general are abstract, pragmatic, and systematic. Te-users just don't prefer to understand but solve, while Ti-users choose to understand instead of solving the problems necessarily. That's one huge difference. Other than that, great video man. Please make more soon!

'Tis true; as an INTJ I love trying to unscrew the inscrutable.
U deserve millions of views and subscriber for ur hard work❤
Thank you so much!
I'm surprised how simple and deep this analysis is. INTJs are always in their head. (Not in the clouds. In their head.😂)
Do Entj next!
Stay tuned!

Thank you for this insightful comment!
Fascinating comment! 🎖️
Could you do a video of ISFPs? I would like to learn more about them. They always hidin.
