I assume you mean that Myers/Briggs itself is inaccurate and discredited,
and not just this knockoff, which seems to assume the HP characters can be
made to be exact fits for the various personality types.

I am curious, though.  Do you mean that the personality types are
meaningless, or that the determination of an individual's type is made using
an inherently unreliable analytical too.  I believe the testing does a poor
job of assessing one's personality, but I do believe the INTJ description
paints a fairly accurate picture of me.  (Not perfect, of course, because
most of us are a blend of characteristics on each side of the polar opposite
pigeonholes we must be made to fit.

A very awkward segueway, but I do want to offer prayers for Sherry, her
daughter and her daughter's friends for their losses

Debbie, aka Lord Voldemort
