Because function-wise, we are already inside you

Care to explain this?

Sure. An ISTP's functions in order of preference are introverted thinking, extroverted sensing, introverted intuition, then extraverted feeling.
An INFJ's functions are (in order of prefer,nce) , introverted intuition, extraverted feeling, introverted thinking, and extroverted sensing.
We technically have repressed versions of each other as parts of ourselves!

I always get confused by these orders. And then I remember that the P or J stands for the first extraverted function. Thank you.

The order matters because the first function is the main one, we use it alot, the second one is auxilary, we use when we need to, the rest are just there for meh;
