When the type doesn’t fit

You read your four letters and thought: that is about 60% me, and the 40% is the interesting part.

About a third of people land close to the middle on at least one line. Every typing test then rounds them into whichever side came out 51/49 — and the description half-fits.

The rounding is the problem, not the person. A result that shows how hard you lean on each line — and which lines flip when the day goes wrong — is more useful than four letters.

A type is a starting position. It is not a verdict, and it is not a forecast.

This one has a number attached.
