I suspect that a greater diversity than personality types alone are needed for long term viability, such as genetic. I agree that short term can be personality based. This genetic aspect is such a diverse topic that I lack the ability to discuss it in the needed depth.

I think it would also fail one generation in when none of the progeny of those 22 can find their "Mr/Mrs Right".
