Convincing your kidnappers you're on their side is not stockholm syndrome.
Actually coming to believe it yourself despite the kidnappers not actually valuing your life, against your own material best interests, is the traditional definition.
Sure, but the traditional definition is based on a real hostage situation and it is specifically based on how those people acted while still being held hostage. Once they were free it turned out that they didn't actually enjoy being held hostage and didn't love their captors. Convincing their kidnappers that they were on their side is pretty much all they were doing.
