Master/Slave some aspects of your model sound very Nietzsche like. Were you partially inspired by him or?
The Master/Slave terminology sounds like Hegel but I assume it is a coincidence-- the model doesn't look like anything any 19th century German philosopher talked about.
Nietzsche also used master/slave terminology, but differently, referring to two different types of value systems. eg Romans = master mentality, Christians = slave/sheep mentality.
