There are far more than 16 different personality type degrees than their are personality types as each preference is on a scale. One person can be a 50% Introvert preference, another can be an 80% Introvert preference, etc.
I'm not arguing for Myers-Briggs over something else just saying it's a good structural start of a psychological descriptor of a given person at a given time.
On their site they say Myers-Briggs is not supposed to be used as a predictor, but as a descriptor. This is where a lot of the problem is with outside sources saying if you have personality type A you're destined to be A, B, C. That's where the fortune cookie crap comes in. Lame
