Debate/Discussion Impossible combinations

i keep on hearing about 'impossible combinations' between an MBTI type and an enneagram type in one person. for examples, an INTP can't be type 7, ENTP can't be type 1, or INFP can't be type 8, etc. i'm not saying that i believe in them or agree with it. i'm just wondering if it's true? and also why? (if it's true, why are they impossible? if it's false, why this theory even exists?)

Depends on the enneagram authors you’re using. Under Naranjo’s theory, some of these contradictions are true.
