I wouldn’t put any faith in this one. There isn’t even enough science in it to call it “junk science”. Its straight up pseudoscience.
Look up the history of this. In 1917 Briggs was a stay-at-home mom with no formal training in any kind of science or psychology. She devised the whole MTBI thing by simply observing her daughter grow up. The daughter is the Myers. After she grew up mom and daughter started selling books and tests for MTBI.
“neither Myers nor Briggs were formally educated in the discipline of psychology, and both were self-taught in the field of psychometric testing.[20]”

It is still used in more complicated variations. It is an easy tool to gage and understand some differences. I find it useful because I am well outside of the 15% range on Introversion Thinking and Intuition. It has been that way for me since the first time I took the test as part of TCAP in the 90’s when I was in 3rd grade. A lot of the problem is when type is not viewed as an evolving spectrum. The variations that are presently used, do a poor job of making themselves approachable and useful to the average person. Something is better than nothing, and it is just as easy to misquote the context of criticism. If ultimate accuracy is necessary at every level of education, everything learned in primary school is pretty much wrong. Foundations are needed, and that is why I said “spectrum.”
