In fairness to @failed_buddhist, you don't need to see them as being at the same level.
That said, I hardly think MBTI is valid as such - and I say that as someone who used to be able to ascertain someone's MBTI type with very high probability (~80% agreement with test results.)

help me understand
- you were able to predict someone's MBTI based on observation
- MBTI is invalid

- I have very well-functioning intuition for feelings (INFP, by MBTI standards). I predict many things about people, very accurately.
- Knowing what you will test as doesn't make assertions based on the test results valid. It doesn't directly prove anything else about you.
It's a very good framing/storytelling device, but otherwise it has little going for it that Big Five doesn't do better and more reliably.
