Exactly! That's why this approach works better for me, at least. With my approach, even if you are "the impostor" then it's fine, because it just means you have more to learn. It's the same approach I take to people disliking me: rather than trying to fight to deny that people dislike you, just say "yeah OK they don't like me. Now what?". It's forward looking rather than backward facing.
