I do not, I deal in active situations.

I may have studied this crap for 5 years but I am yet to find one of these things that actually makes sense when I diligently go through the ambiguous questions that are asked.

I know where I stand, it's nowhere near where any of these things put me.

I am Monkey

Well said.

Its inferences are generally pretty accurate, to be fair—in terms of quadrant certainly and typically in terms of more exact placement too.

Don't see how you can put a number to 2 decimal places on a political leaning, tbh

It a way of quantifying something, it is a way of representing someone's political views in a way that can be compared, catalogued and analysed. When it comes down to it most everyone will take each decision that comes at them at its merits rather than just following the party line as such.

I am also INTJ and ESAK - interesting scores and all but they don't actually represent me. I am INTJ but INTJ is not me!

Still can't see it, you're 1.79 more right wing than I am. Which means what exactly?

It means statistically when all of the results for BD are plotted together you could state that BD is more or less politically inclined along both axis. It is a statistical tool, it isn't meant to mean anything about you or me or the differences between us specifically.
