2Judith. As a persnickety editor myself, I'm all for zapping superfluous words, but sometimes one may remove so many, that a sentence has no breathing room. To my ear, "count myself as a" is interchangeable with "see myself as a," and I think the slight element of modality suits this context. Thanks for the opportunity to reflect on that.
