You might want to check this official question. All the five options use “consider X to be Y” construction.

As AjiteshArun mentioned that it is wordier but not necessarily incorrect.

Even RonTargetTestPrep has mentioned the same in his posts with Manhattan Prep.

An official sentence:

In California, a lack of genetic variation in the Argentine ant has allowed the species to spread widely; because they are so genetically similar to one another, the ants consider all their fellows to be close relatives and thus do not engage in the kind of fierce intercolony struggles that limit the spread of this species in its native Argentina.
