What's the best Meyers-Briggs type for scientists?

And why is it ENTP?

Every scientist relies on a certain degree of intuition to think laterally and make breakthroughs. Intuitive types are almost always better for science.

ENTPs are equally as good at science as INTPs, and are equally capable of isolating themselves and autistically absorbing themselves in a problem, but ENTPs have the additional quality of being good communicators, collaborators and teachers when needed.

I’m INTP, but I enjoy teaching and collaborating when it comes to science and math. Hell I even enjoy public speaking, but when it comes to anything else I’m a complete shut in. I don’t think I or E has any effect on how well you can communicate with your peers, rather it’s an indication of how much you enjoy the company of your fellow man.
Also Myers-Briggs is pseudoscience.

The difference between INTP and ENTP is supposed to be Ne-Ti for ENTPs and Ti-Ne for INTPs. That is, ENTPs' primary function is intuitively exploring ideas around them and finding patterns, and INTPs' primary function is analytical thinking. ENTP's secondary function is INTP's primary function and vice versa

So the question is, which is better for science? I think ENTPs are more revolutionary thinkers, as they think outside of the box more. INTPs can be equally revolutionary by finding incredible logical conclusions once a set of ideas are given. I would say Heisenberg was ENTP-like and Dirac was INTP-like.

STJ types are superior for modern school. They don't consider much outside of the notation the teachers tell them to memorize therefore it cuts down on mind wondering and considering concepts which are not related specifically to the subject they're learning right away.

People who are "quick" learners are just STJ types who accept notation and words without spending a lot of mental effort on meaning.

Algebra is when STJs shine in school due to their ability to accept notation without having to consider what it means.

You guys underestimate just how powerful a perceiving function introverted sensing is. Introverted sensing is the most misunderstood function and almost everyone who believes themselves to have Ni actually has Si.
You also underestimate how much of the lower functions are developed by the time a person is in their mid twenties. By that point, all the functions are developed. Although Ne is lower on the stack, it's still used all the time by older mature xSTJ types.
Almost every xNTJ type is actually an xSTJ type who scored NTJ because online tests are stupid.

The irony in this thread is that Meyers-Briggs is completely unscientific, and anyone who has taken an entry level course on psychology or critical thinking could tell you this.
Kind of embarrassing when this board makes fun of psychologists on a regular basis.

Typically something autistic, so xNTJ or xNTP.

can somebody tell me why are mbti communities on the internet so obsessed with functions?
I know it's just to dodge all pseudoscience accusations(don't use letters, use functions those are valid!) but why Harold Grant function stack of all shitty mbti theories out there?
it's not used by any official mbti tests yet internet is filled with this crap, I'm curious how it started

I'm biased towards ENTP since I'm one, but I think it's really hard to say which one is better.
INTPs go really well with mathematical autism just like Dirac. They're machines, and do everything with superb accuracy. ENTPs, however, are more like Feynman (I don't know enough about Heisenberg, the man, to say if he's a fitting example or not) and are unmatched in understanding the meaning, the ideas, and thinking intuitively rather than methodically.

MBTI is arbitrary and unscientific. People's personalities change a ton over the course of their life. Big 4 is the only personality metric that carries a semblance of legitimacy.
MBTI is zodiac signs for less gullible people. Give me proof otherwise
