Yep, me too. (Sample size of two doesn't make a Theorem....but anecdotally I see a majority of my tables chock full of realists at the lower levels (1/2NL, 1/3HE)

OK, then not an issue imo. Use it to your advantage...but don't assume that everyone that wants to know the stats at the end are genuinely interested. Some,,,,, will be smirking beneath their exterior facade.
Finally your OP stated something about a 40bb/100 winrate..and not being sustainable. Easy to do for a session....but when you add up 6 months of data (more or less).... But my point is,,,, are you using your psychological helper to maybe lie to yourself, to inflate your ego that would increase your confidence on that particular table? I always found when I started thinking I was the best player at a table, my A Game seemed to disappear.
