What is the difference between Jungian and Neo-Jungian?

I thought of making this post as I thought that some parts of this community get them mixed up when they shouldn't since it could cover some of the other "good" parts in Jung and Neo-Jungian concepts that are better seen and exemplified on their own. Without further ado, here are the main differences:

Overall the main difference here is that, Classic Jungian typology brings more importance to the philosophical side, while may be far from concrete, is best in terms of mysticism and when tackling individuation processes as the types are dynamic. By practical application Neo-Jungian concepts take the cake but for philosophical purposes I would suggest Classical Jungian. Classical Jungian is more deeper in terms of their types and offers a lot of interesting concepts such as synchronicity and the collective unconscious however Neo-Jungian is more direct to the point and literal in their statements.
