Yes. In fact, it would count even if you spent it for the .

The rulebook on page 28 states:

"Unless otherwise specified, advanced capabilities count, for all purposes, as both of the basic capabilities that make up its components. Thus, a counts as both a and a and would be affected by any card or effect that encompassed either capability."

So if you spent a to fulfill a , as far as Jeeves is concerned, you're spending a . He doesn't care what you're spending it on.

This illustrates an important concept. When advanced capabilities are spent to fulfil basic capability costs/requirements, they don't simply become the basic capability. It's not like turns into just because you only want the half.
