Actually no it's not similar to borrowed. In the council you never step into their bodies to be them and experience their behaviours, actions or way of thinking you only ask them for their thoughts and advise. You call them in as mentors.
In Borrowed Genius you actually step into the body to learn their style first hand. To try and be them all at the same time is not going to create a clear distinction of what that Genius does that works so uniquely well for that genius.
