Yeah, I shouldn't have made this sound like an argument... since this ain't a debate. Here's what I'll do for you: I'll give you my impressions based on your posts and you can simply add that to your evidence pile. Obviously, you'll have to sort out this mess for yourself in the end.

5w6 have problems trusting others. You are always on the defensive. Any contradiction to your ideas is immediate grounds for debate.

5w6 are very "intellectual" where 5w4 are more "acedemic". OK, it's a fine line distinction but your style of arguing details endlessly and making technical points screams "intellectual".

5w6 are interested in absolute certainty. You present your theories like they are facts.... you BELIEVE in them. You seem uncomfortable with doubt.

5w6 have some passive-aggressive tendencies. Yep.

5w6 are especially cautious about taking risks. You don't even like to put caffeine in your body! You are seriously concerned about outside influence and losing control.

To sum up: You seem a lot more like a Stephen Hawking than a James Joyce.

These are not insults, just observations. Truthfully, I'm absolutely amazed by your intellect at your age. (Yeah, I know you don't want to hear the age thing but look around you... most high schoolers are not thinking this way at all.)
