I think your willingness to accept past mistakes would make me see it less as arrogance and more a healthy level of self-confidence. Successes like the ones you listed, especially "puking" out a working feature, would definitely be what's chips away at imposter syndrome for those like me who struggle with it at times.

I agree that there's no insightful bit of brilliance to magic Imposter Syndrome away. It's about learning to accept when the work is hard and build up your confidence through experience, both of which take time.
