You are right. I hadn't made that connection. Now I have a little more respect for Omohundro's work.
I was a little bit concerned about your initial Omohundro reaction.
Omohundro's material is mostly fine and interesting. It's a bit of a shame that there isn't more maths - but it is a difficult area where it is tricky to prove things. Plus, IMO, he has the occasional zany idea that takes your brain to interesting places it didn't dream of before.
I maintain some Omohundro links here.
As a side point, you could also re-read "Basic AI drives" as "Basic Replicator Drives" - it's systemic evolution.
