I think strict correlationists are stupid. There. I said it. ESPECIALLY when it comes to people who believe Naranjos word is holy and 100% true, even Beatrice Chestnut correlationists are pushing it (yes, I’ve read her book.). There are UNLIMITED possibilities and even according to Naranjo himself, enneagram is partially based on your childhood traumas while your cognitive functions are not. I’m an ENTP, and while I struggled to find my enneagram for a long time because of correlations I came to the conclusion I’m a sx6, although I mistyped as a sx3 for a while which is still highly debated as it as by correlationists simply because I’m still in school and I’m very driven by academic validation from my teachers, especially in university courses.

All enneagrams should be possible, just rarer or more common. An infp e8 would definitely be a sight to see but it’s not impossible, maybe just 1 in a thousand. Personally, if it weren’t for my childhood trauma and intense abandonment issues that stemmed from my loneliness/bullying and NEED to be safe and secure thanks to the abuse I endured, I probably would’ve been the ENTP archetype as an e7. Not to mention I also have OCD which Naranjo HIMSELF states has a correlation to e6.
