Discussion on: What type of learner are you? And why it matters!

I agree with the central thesis here - which is that all these "Tests" are in some sense indicative of our own biases and preferences, and not rooted in any scientific or genetic predisposition to be better at one than the other.

Going forward, I am going to think of these as learning strategies and not personalized styles. Each strategy uses a different combination of our senses to provide input and derive insight. And what we get out of each is likely to be proportional to how much we prefer (prioritize) and practice (upskill) our learning journeys using that option
