I agree with the last 3 but consider the way each of them disintegrates. Nathan (3) -> 9 ( very unhealthy in the beginning ) and as he gets better his 3-ness shows lower levels of unhealth. Coach beard becomes delusional and suspicious as well as non confronting . He goes healthy 9-> 6 in his escapism and depression episode ( and unwillingness to confront his relationship with Jane earlier on ) Type 4 is all about seeing the suffering in things and not being part of a group. Jamie is more about repressing his hurt rather then wallowing in it- he is 3w4 because his 4 wing makes him "need to stand out". Keely as a 3 makes sense as a mistype, but she isn't afraid of shame or others opinions of her. Leslie is E9 because he's non confrontational like when his desk keeps getting taken and how he does the right thing ( w1 ) and uses direct force to solve conflicts ( w8 ) -> if he was to have a character arc he would get his office back and stand on his own. Finally Rebecca is not E1 in any sense. She's not a perfectionist, and has no qualms using underhanded tactics to get what she wants. E1 is about being a good person ( for the sake of others ( w2 ) and being "right" and lovingly orderly and at peace ( w9 ). When E1 goes to E4 in disintegration they begin to force themselves onto others. When E8 goes to E5 in disintegration they plot and do research to achieve their own lawless/ "it's every man ( and their family )for themselves" centric goals. I respect that you tried to use all 9 enneagram types in this article even though we disagree. The enneagram is extremely interesting as a character examination tool when used properly! Cool article. I also respect 6->3 disintegration of Nathan because without thinking he was a 3 ( due to social media obsession ) I would have guessed he was a 6 from his flighty habits. Cheers :D
