Abrasive relation
Super-ego
EIE ↔ LSEEach may admire something the other does well, while feeling less sure of that same area in themselves. Closeness can make this more delicate.
EIE and LSE stand in the same position, so the relation reads the same from either side.

How Super-ego works
When it helps
Tact and personal space let them appreciate their differences without needing to match each other.
What to notice
Admiration can turn into rivalry or criticism. Either person may feel the other is overlooking what they need.
Abrasive relations. What comes easily to one person may be harder for the other to enjoy or keep up with. Patience and clear expectations can make a difference.
What passes between them
Every type has eight functions, from what comes most naturally to what costs the most effort. These are the places where EIE’s and LSE’s meet most directly.

How this pairing resolves to Super-ego
Both types’ eight functions, side by side
Rows follow Model A’s eight function positions, from Leading (1) to Demonstrative (8); they are not a ranking of strength or value. The highlighted rows are the contacts that hold across all sixteen ordered pairs the archive assigns to Super-ego.
Where this comes from
The relation name and roles come straight from the archived relation table, and the meeting points follow from Model A. The summaries are the Atlas’s plain-language reading of the archived Super-ego guide: a place to start, not a prediction about two real people.

Technical details
- Structural fingerprint
3 → 4 → 1 → 2 → 7 → 8 → 5 → 6All eight contacts, ordered from EIE’s first through eighth positions.- All eight contacts
- 4 friction points · 4 quieter links
- Why Super-ego
- The same broad block shape also appears in Conflict. The exact order of the contacts is what makes this Super-ego.
- Model A
- Function positions and blocks come from the archived Model A and Functions pages (
