> americans do tend to always mistake the appearance of something for the reality of it. americans are used car salesmen. they distort and hype their self-image because they're brought up in a salesman culture  from childhood, they're trained to persuade and "make friends and influence people" so they can sell their brand (the fake image of themselves). americans advise you to "fake it until you make it." but even those few who "make it" continue to fake it, like elon musk.
