The majority of people see it as an either/or issue and I'm of the belief that usage defines the tool, not the other way around. To me, that's a false dichotomy. If there are a bunch of other distinct categories people can fall into, extrovert vs introvert is just one set of many possible facets of personality-type interactions to be compared, they're certainly not the two ends of a binary spectrum. Having read this article on intuitive introversion,, I can confidently say that doesn't describe me either. If you feel that article isn't an accurate representation of the archetype, I'd be happy to read something you think is and reconsider. Ultimately though, we might as well skip alI that and you could just read me my horoscope, I'd find it equally useful.
You read. I am not on the clock. I am not here to diagnose you. I do not need to be accurate. I do need to use more examples than just my own on these casual things but I digress.
I did not give you a reading list on purpose. So you wouldn't read it as a Wikipedia article and would instead read with yourself in mind.
I understand your frustration because it is literally mine. But words matter. Personality as described by the laymen usage of only the main attitudes (as in the meme and your gripe) is akin to use a Mendel square in Biology to map out hereditary traits.
A tool of abstract simplification over a vastly more complicated subject. But not a false dichotomy.
P.S. Your horoscope says that your cornflakes are crossing your piss and are being an asshole.
