That first question to me isn't black and white, but conditional on the people/person around me. Similar with question 5. "it depends...." I may get fired up or remain silent.
Not sure what category that puts me in.

That probably reflects in my choices I'd make that depend on circumstances and give rise to varying responses across them.

Every person is a seething mass of contradictions but generally I find people feel the test is pretty spot on. I have met a few people felt their results were only partly true. It was not clear whether they were resistant to the results of their own type, or to the strictures of typing as a concept and I didn't want to press them. But in your case, you seem to reject your own results...
