//Does this not sound, in part, like the 'Aashrayatva-vishayatva-bhAginI '
verse where the reason: the pashchima = jiva is a product of the
tamas/ajnana that precedes the jiva, and hence the latter can't be the
aashraya of avidya/tamas?//

Absolutely. Samkshepa ShArIraka uses exactly the same logic in
आश्रयत्व-विषयत्व- भागिनी as adduced in Naishkarmya Siddhi.

In fact, the same thing is stated in VivaraNa also.
