The opposite of introvert is extrovert, not "schmoozer/bullshitter".

Yes, but my point was that it took me awhile to figure this out in praxis. When you're as introverted as I am, you so detest the act of self-promotion that you tend to conflate it with schmoozing and bullshitting. That's a mistake I made, and my point is that it's probably a common mistake.


Lol, what does it matter when both terms are stereotypical bullshit?


Let me elaborate: Humans are more sophisticated than the scope of either of these labels.
