We do know, of course, that there is precisely one way to mess up an Open

Somehow I think there is a risk in trying to find a correlation
between the succes of Open Space and personality type and that
is precisely that it might be seen as a way to control the thing.
I have always been very hesitant towards personality typing of
any kind because it can easily be used as a means of thinking
we've got ourselves (or each other!) figured out and under
control. That goes all the way from horoscopes to MBTI or what
have you.
I am not saying these models should not be used, but let's make
sure that it is used as a means to make us see more of ourselves
and the other rather than less.
