Do we actually learn anything from this except that diversity is a nice thought?

Try to see beyond the 'here and now', and understand deeper meanings
consider moral and ethical implications of problems as well as practical solutions

Logical-Mathematical Thinker

I'm a musical thinker, but that's kind of unfair. I watched myself answer "always" to all the music questions, but I wish I got to see a ranking of my possible results.

In other similar tests, I score 100% in musical, logical, and intrapersonal. This one includes a 9th intelligence, existentialism, that I'm sure I would score extremely high on as well.

Meh. Pointless test.

Musical thinkers:
Tend to think in sounds, and may also think in rhythms and melodies
Are sensitive to the sounds and rhythms of words as well as their meanings.
Feel a strong connection between music and emotions

This fits, though I think intrapersonal thinker fits me even better.
