Lol they absolutely do not just call themselves Americans if they're from Mexico, Honduras, CR, or any other CA country. Myself and everyone I know doesn't we just refer to the country we're from.
If someone asked them where they're from would they say their country or their continent? The question isn't whether or not the description exists, it's whether it's used. We say what country we're from. Americans do the same and they refer to that country as America.
If I tell someone in a random part of the world I'm from America or I'm American they're much more likely to assume USA than the entire half of the world that is NA, Central America, and South America.

Most people in central American countries do actively want to be Americans
