:) i'm fine with your nitpicking!
I read Spinoza in high school - a decade+ back- the accuracy of timing is so porous.
@ University i opted for Social Anthropology instead of Philosophy. I still have some remorse about that choice today...

FWIW, I did study Philosophy, but dropped out after just one semester. However I have not read anything written by Spinoza.
He must have been an interesting person, though. In his day job, he created lenses that powered the first microscopes and the telescope(s) that Christiaan Huygens used to observe Saturn's rings. A true Renaissance man, indeed!
