A lot of editing out.

I honestly don't know why anyone would read Heidegger to learn about
Nietzsche. Yes, he wrote these long books on Nietzsche, also
various shorter comments, but as interpretations of Nietzsche
they are next to useless.
Ah, but if Heidegger is what you are interested in, they are
very interesting. They are all Heidegger, like everything
he wrote, breathing his own unique atmosphere. "Nietzsche"
is just one more excuse for him to write his own strange
stuff.
