Since the EJs with whom I have been in relationship have also often been engineers, I have often ended up in terrible fights with them on occasions I have exhibited the tendency to "not give a damn" about efficiency. For instance, "Yeah, I get that the spray on the dishwasher would be 17.5% more effective if I loaded the dishes at that angle, but I just don't care enough to tune in to that particular task at full power/high alert." Eventually the overbearing manner of an EJ will cause me to full on retreat into INTP from eNTP, because at least I can maintain control over what I am reading, and although it is somewhat boring for an EJ to attempt to herd/guard/direct an individual who is just sitting quietly in a chair, they can't really complain too much.
