Yes I agree they are useful. Why I got quite obsessed with personality theories in the past, they helped me a lot getting to understand myself better and even more getting to understand others and how people are motivated. I also studied others that are a bit esoteric and astrology-like, for the fun of it.

What I'm interested in learning about these days are personality disorders. I'm not usually very much into the pathologizing, but find that stuff interesting especially in the context of how/why these "disordered" patterns develop.

Yes I think the MBTI is quite interesting regarding how people interact with each-other driven by, and using, these kinds of preferences. And compatibilities.
