Is there a distinction between "l'ha'alos al hada'as" and "l'ha'alos al halev"? Is it possible to read (or was it possible for the Rambam to compose) H. Yesodei HaTorah 1:2 without violating H. AZ 2:3? How?

The difference seems obvious to me: it's the difference between
"leha`alos" and "ya`aleh".   As Pirkei Ovos says, "ad sheyeshev viysirem
milibo"
