You know what, I’m currently feeling impostor syndrome—or just plain old inadequacy, the point is the same—just by talking here. Maybe it’s all out of my league, and maybe I’m operating under a massive self-deception. I’ll take a couple days off LW at least and won’t think about the whole matter at all. Maybe I’ll have to take a longer break.

Without trying to condescend too much—Something to keep in mind when managing your own sense of adequacy and inclusion is that personal challenges are much more controversial (and likely to be challenged and counterattacked) than more straightforward positions. While direct challenges are sometimes appropriate it is almost always always more practical to avoid them unless you are already feeling entirely secure in your position and not especially vulnerable to potential disagreement.
The above applies both here and elsewhere and even when you are being entirely reasonable.
...maybe. Okay.
