I think your point about environment affecting function expression is correct. I feel that I have relatively weak Ti due to being brought up in a culture that heavily valued Fe. I learned to be very polite and to not contradict people - especially as a child, my opinion was essentially useless. I feel almost uncomfortable debating (something INTPs are seen as being good at and enjoy doing) unless I know for sure that what I say will not be misinterpreted. I am painfully conscious (due to experience with peers) of being seen as a know-it-all and really try to keep my thoughts to myself (I don’t usually succeed at this, though, since the compulsion to correct or clarify can be very strong). It’s a weird limbo existence where I never feel like myself unless I’m alone.
The new thing I learned was about Ti trolling and Fi authenticity, that specific contrast. Great video man, don't worry about rambling or making it too long, 10 to 15 minutes is the sweet spot imo.
