You should not bring that in yet, because at this point the departure from 
Husserl has not come yet. For Husserl, absorbed lived experienced is naive 
SPECIFICALLY WITH RESPECT TO world existence, whereas for Heidegger, 
everydayness is not prejudiced SPECIFICALLY WITH RESPECT TO world existence. 
Rather, for Heidegger, everydayness is naive and "prejudiced" in a DIFFERENT 
way - in that it does not see its own ontological ground, and therefore 
interprets itself essentially in terms of beings. So Heidegger would flatly 
(and in fact does exlicitly) deny that everydayness is prejudiced 
SPECIFICALLY WITH RESPECT TO world existence (which is what Husserl's 
phenomenological reduction is SPECIFICALLY about) since we are 
being-alonside from the start, and he never suspends this. What he 
"suspends" is the interpretation of Dasein ONTOLOGICALLY in terms of 
entities, by reducing this to inauthenticity.
