Truth is not the issue. A 'true' judgement is still a judgement.

For example, an Islamist who says a western cartoonist is guilty of blasphemy may be rendering a true judgement, based on the standards of his religion. Or, if you think the standards for blasphemy are different , you may think it a false judgement. But the point, when describing the P/J personality dimension, isn't the truth or falseness. It's the fact of judging, deciding, settling the matter. J-types want to do that, without delay.

P-types prefer to keep the option open, and resist when J's insist that others immediately accept their 'true' decision.

Now, how can people accurately report their personality on a typing assessment when they do judge, but don't recognize what they do as judging?
Water boiling at 212F or 100C isn't a judgment, it's just true.

I see your point, and it's a good one, but you're interpreting the word "true" incorrectly as it was used.

Our other thread end result was unexpected (like a liquid turning into a gas) but the process was completely linear, predictable and demanded.

Sum? Her culpability just is, as true as replicable science.

That's not judgment, that's math.
