While fairness is maintained in this way, in most cases, the one who gives first will have the advantage.
INTPs tend to be skeptical, but their analytical thinking and ability to solve problems efficiently are undoubtedly useful to others as well.
Of course, there will be times when you want to be alone to reach a conclusion that satisfies you, but there will also be times when you want to discuss things with truly trustworthy and capable people. Such discussions can be beneficial for both yourself and others. To achieve this, it's important to make an effort to build close relationships whenever opportunities arise.
