You can't have imposter syndrome with out the conscious or unconscious idea that you've "fooled" all the rubes around you into thinking you're good at something.
Even in doubt you're still doing some mental gymnastics that allow you to place yourself above your peers. It's inherently self centered and arrogant way of thinking about yourself. The opposite of self aware.

Maybe I am misunderstanding your comment or Imposter Syndrome, but isn't someone with Imposter Syndrome placing themselves below their peers their actual abilities?
