I think there's two aspects to this.

Firstly, Claude's self concept is based around humanity's collective self-concept. (Well, the statistical average of all the self-concepts on the internet.)

So it doesn't have a clear understanding of what LLMs' strengths and weaknesses are, and itself by extension. (Neither do we, from what I gathered. At least, not in a way that's well represented in web scrapes ;)

Secondly, as a programmer I have noticed a similar pattern... stuff that people say is easy turns out to be a pain in the ass, and stuff that they say is impossible turns out to be trivial. (They didn't even try, they just repeated what other people told them was hard, who also didn't try it...)
