I think this model is over-simplified and not useful. The main problem in my opinion is that it's one sided.

A good question to ask would be what is your label in how you relate to someone else - I think almost no-one would label themselves as a 'Shapeshifter' or 'Hater'. Even if you didn't like someone, you wouldn't say that you are a hater, but you are being rational in your dislike for them.

Another problem this model has is this is just a snapshot within the timeline. Nobody wouldn't be able to decide if someone was (not) a 'Blind' until he finally had disagree with you. All the category discussed in the article cannot be decided until it's too late and simply a hindsight. What could you make use of the model if it wasn't available in advance?
