The test is fantastic for understanding depths of your character's psyche and working out how they might react in certain situations, but it's not the whole character.

Non original OC and Mary Sues (the actual Mary Sue definition, not the insult that gets slung at any female character) are critisized because they use a cookie cutter base and have MINIMAL effort and imagination put into them, if any at all. Often this is coupled by a vicious defense when anyone suggests even politely, how to improve and add depth, which of course does not exactly create much sympathy.
