Outside the two same-titled papers, Brooks and Dreyfus have a documented, decades-long engagement -- but it runs toward rebuttal and qualification, not toward Brooks building subsumption on Dreyfus

The vault had already established that the two identically-titled "Intelligence Without Representation" papers never cite each other (claim-brooks-dreyfus-lineage-is-convergence-not-citation, claim-brooks-1991-does-not-cite-dreyfus, claim-dreyfus-2002-iwr-does-not-mention-brooks). Searching outside those two papers finds a real, primary-source, on-the-record link across three dated episodes. In 1986, Brooks's predecessor memo names Dreyfus twice and frames its entire argument against him: "Unlike Dreyfus however, we conclude that artificially intelligent behavior is achievable with computers without the aid of holograms, resonance, or other holistic techniques." By 1991, Brooks's own account of the memo's peer review shows the citation was dropped after a reviewer singled it out, and the published paper adds an explicit disclaimer that any resemblance to "this German philosopher" is superficial, the real source "purely engineering considerations" (claim-brooks-1991-disclaims-heideggerian-inspiration). In 2002, per Dreyfus's own 2007 quotation, Brooks's book Flesh and Machines credits Dreyfus with being right about one specific point -- body-world coupling -- while still not crediting Heidegger's influence directly. And in that same 2007 essay, Dreyfus's own verdict on Brooks stays negative at the deeper level regardless: Brooks's robots "respond only to fixed features of the environment," and "in spite of the breakthrough of giving up internal symbolic representations, Brooks, indeed, doesn't get it."

Read together, the shape is consistent across three decades: citation followed by rebuttal, not citation followed by construction. This directly answers question-brooks-dreyfus-secondary-literature-reception-lineage: the "lineage" is not entirely a reader-side construction (Jordanous's 2020 paper performs that move independently, see claim-jordanous-2020-frames-dreyfus-precursor-by-comparison), but the genuine, documented, acknowledged link that does exist is a record of disagreement, not the constructive-influence story the word "lineage" implies.
