One of the most useful effects of nerding out over Myers-Briggs or Enneagram is that it gives you a structure to easily relate to people in multiple modes. Either/both under stress or relaxed conditions gives you 4 modes. Already 4x better than “harmony or conflict”

Such unflattening is good for all relationships. You can do it without crutches like Myers-Briggs but it will stress your reserves of compassion and empathy way more. So why not use any crutches that seem to help continue the game rather than blow it up under stress.

Putting people at ease in any situation so you can relate to them in non-conflict mode, while you yourself are in any state (stressed or relaxed) is a superpower. I suck at it, but with such prosthetics I can often outperform people who are naturally better at it.
