Introvert, Extrovert, Otrovert?

I don't think "Otrovert" belongs in the same realm as I/E
I get why it's being lumped there, but I think there are different mechanisms at play for it
One is about energy, the other is about connection
There should really be a separate spectrum of Otrovert/Whatever word describes being or feeling hyper connected to the tribe

In my mind, I just see the description of Otravert much like a Ni dom type. You are right that Jung largely spoke of I/E as energy and directing libido, or whatever. I think this psychologist is coming from the "Introvert = shy and Extrovert = boisterous" type of thing. Obviously, that is not what I/E means if you read Jung. I just found it striking how well it described me more than anything.
 
Yeah I agree, I am definitely on the Otrovert side as well
