Exactly. Ego cannot be me. It is just a concept used to describe part of the whole of me.
The ego represents different things to different people. It is not static. It can be inflated or deflated. It can be proud or ashamed. It can be hateful or loving.
If ego was separate, how would we know these personality traits?
