You- "Apathy to hide their fear."

We talk about inertia... your answer "fear".
We talk about bonding... your answer "fear".
We talk about apathy... your answer "fear".

All key issues for a 5. Some of which are just part of our cognitive style and not emotionally motivated or particularly neurotic at all. In others words, part of who we are and not merely a defense.

Plus there's the "like a 9"... "like a 9"... "like a 9"

You're wrong and you sound like a friggin' stone-deaf parrot and 4ish snob... since saying apathy towards others is motivated by fear... the suggestion is present that empathy towards others is courageous. In a sense, celebrating the nature of your type while criticizing mine. Well, that's what my intuition smells and I assumed it wasn't conscious maliciousness... and that's where my questions and my irritation came from.

So if you want to DISCUSS the nature of type 5, fear, anger, and neurosis... I am more than prepared.
