Is inhibition a 'negative' weighted permanence?

I know the HTM white paper said the permanence is 0.0 ~ 1.0 and the
inhibition is to make sure the neuron activation is 'sparse locally'.
However, why can't we consider the inhibition signal as a 'negative' weight
of permanence?

Could anyone help to provide some input? Do we have any information which
supports me to make permanence as negative?
