Yeah I totally did, it fit my previous thinking (was very into Nietzsche a few years back too) and I've been building on it since.

Since this is I think the second time you've made a comment like this I'm wondering why exactly you feel the need to point this out. I mean surely you realize you've stolen stuff from me too right? And we both stole loads from a whole bunch of other people. Is this kind of like a bonding fist bump of a call for me to name drop you more?

Those who read our public exchanges know we are on good terms and that I like your stuff, not sure what more name dropping would do for you beyond that, especially since this is material from our private email exchanges and not a public article I can link to. If I recall the exchange the idea was inspired by a one line reply you made in a long conversation, so its not exactly something easily quotable either.
