Seems like I've caught myself making half-baked conclusions as well....

: Or: Mr. McCorvin plays with his companions in a childish manner, for 5-ish purposes. He enjoys collecting data and constructing hypotheses about people's reactions to offbeat behavior.

Even that conclusion must be backed by evidence of motivation.

Other types collect data and construct hypotheses as well, upon different motivations. My statement above ignored that crucial point. In effect, I managed to annoy myself in the way that others who make similar snap-judgments annoy me.

Why do 5's enjoy (or, in the less "healthy" levels, obsess over) constructing hypotheses?

Well, Mr. McCorvin, being a 5w6, fears exposing himself to life unprepared, and to his mind, knowledge is power.
