This really is a great article, for helping the INTP to get along with others. The problem is, if the INTP is truly knowledgeable, as stated in the article and dealing with others who either have no facts or misinformation or lesser amount of information, if all the intps and intjs constantly hold back to appease others the effect would be to severely limit the transfer of knowledge from one to the next.

It would also have a detrimental effect on the intps ability to think, constantly pulling your punches is not a great way to exercise your body or your brain.

I'm not saying the article doesn't have tremendous Merit, but I think it should be used cautiously.

One way to keep from fighting and to stay intellectually active is to try to debate or deal with people that are experts in a topic that you are not an expert in

In effect, giving them the big advantage, just try not to cover things that they don't understand in other topics.
