It's sounds to me like comparing others' rules to their internal experience and comparing others' rules to their internal principles/values, is just a slightly different way of doing the same thing.

*Exactly*
. It *is* fundamentallly the same thing. But it can look *very* different.
And I've seen firsthand how an ISTJ is somewhat bemused and feels less than by others' insistence on principles over rules - it feels different to her, and when she tries to explain it, she's told she's not seeing it right, that this new way is so much better. They probably meant well, but they saw rules as bad - following external rules against themselves hurt *them* so much, therefore they are bad for all - and so zealously crusaded against rules. The people who found value in the rules were clearly mistaken and had to be saved from themselves
.
Thus perpetrating the very thing that hurt themselves so much
