"More self-styled" refers to an individual or entity that claims or presents themselves as having a particular identity, role, or expertise, often without substantial external validation or recognition. This term is composed of two elements: 'more' and 'self-styled.'
- 'More' suggests an increased degree or quantity beyond what is usual or previously established. It conveys the idea of intensification or a higher level of self-styling than others.
- 'Self-styled' refers to a person or organization that has declared or adopted a certain title, label, or position for themselves without official or widespread acknowledgment or endorsement from others. It implies an assertion or self-proclamation of being a certain thing, whether that be a specific role, authority, skill, or identity.
When combined, 'more self-styled' characterizes a situation or individual who claims a higher level of self-imposed, personalized identification or distinction, surpassing others who are also self-styled but potentially to a lesser extent. This term highlights the asserted claim of uniqueness, expertise, or differentiation made by the subject, acknowledging their individual distinction without necessarily authenticating it. It suggests a higher level of self-imposed characterization or self-proclaimed qualities compared to others who have similarly styled themselves in some way. However, it is essential to note that being "more self-styled" does not necessarily indicate actual superiority or expertise, as external validation or substantiation might be absent.
