Silver is the hardest division to carry yourself out of

I'd have to strongly disagree. This season alone I went from S4 (your rank) to p5 quite easily. I had upwards of a 60% win rate until I hit G1. And I'll admit G1 was pretty hard for me because I wasn't that much better than the people I was facing, yet, I persevered and climbed. And I did all while maining a shitty off meta pick for mid lane. The reason you can't climb is fault of your own. The sooner you accept this, the sooner you'll improve. You can't get better by putting the blame on your teamates every game, rather, focus on what you could have done better.
I don't understand? That match history doesn't look like someone who is outperforming their rank.
OP is surprised that he isn't the only one borderline inting in silver. He was 0/14/3 when the rest of his team had good-great stats (Anivia was 11/3).
Imo S3-G5 is harder than alot of gold lol. The pool of players are from everywhere, whether they are in placements, just got placed, climbed, fell, etc. You pretty much gotta 1v5 if you want any consistency in this elo. That is the case with alot of elos but this one specifically just feels so coin-flippy. This reminds me of a mini p1/d5. There is just a pretty good chance you're going to get players that you don't want on your team lol.
It isn't the hardest to climb out of but it is up there for the elos I hate the most :P
Silver is the hardest in one situation: You repeatedly get Bronze teammates and silver enemies. That happened to me, really annoying, don't fucking match me with Bronze after I climb out. I just stopped playing ranked because matchmaking in low silver is bad. I've never had a good game since getting out of Bronze, it's always curbstomp for one team or the other because of matchmaking putting one silver 4 bronze vs 4 silver one bronze. However it isn't as hard as climbing out of bronze. Bronze 5 specifically.
Same i'm stuck in silver III .
Every game is a complete stomp from enemy .
