Didn't take you very long to figure that one out. Thanks for pointing out that thread. You have no idea how much time you are about to cause me to waste....
Any division is only contextual, there is no inherent greater importance in the way they're split.
However Keirsey's inconsistent/unequal SJ/NF/NT/SP split is somewhat annoying.
If you have SJ and SP, then you should also have NJ and NP.. or NT and NF and also have ST and SF...
I have no idea why he choose such a grouping. It offers no consistency whatsoever in the differences between those types.

The groupings are only contextual and cosmetic, they don't really affect the foundation of MBTI or typology. I suppose it does present stereotypes as SJ, NT or whatever but that would happen anyway you group them. So there is really nothing for me to disagree with, I just find one group inconsistent with another(none of the groups are opposites).
Re the typology divisions--EyeSeeCold is right; they did a survey of studies to see if the Myers or Keirsey groupings did a better job of predicting behavior than any other grouping, i.e. EP, EN, TP, IF, etc. They didn't. So it would appear that both categorization strategies are fairly arbitrary.
@Anna Moss, good ones. Started off a little rough but you are really hitting your stride. First time I've seen a Meglodon reference outside of science shows +1
