The most common description of Sherlock Holmes and his personality is that he is a mystery solver and a detective. This description can be used to describe most INTPs, but not all. Sherlock has a very different personality from most INTPs, and was not developed by INTPs. He is a mystery solver and a detective, but he isn't the only one in his mind with such characteristics, and he isn't the only INTP who solves mysteries and who is a detective. He is not, in most ways, an ideal role model for most INTPs.
Sherlock is very different from most INTPs in the way he minds and in how he solves mysteries and in his approach to case files and evidence. He is highly rational and highly intellectual, but not necessarily in the same way as most INTPs. He has no interest in social interaction or in helping others with their problems. He is not good with people at all. He has deep intellectual insights into the case files, but he does not know how to use them to help people or to help himself.
DETECTIVE:
"First: I analyze you. I start: Cooperate, Cheat, Cooperate, Cooperate.
If you cheat back, I'll act like Copycat. If you never cheat back, I'll act like Always Cheat, to exploit you."
