That link says low self esteem is an unclassified symptom.

No, it is in the category of "Symptoms, signs and abnormal clinical and laboratory findings, not elsewhere classified" which does not mean that it is unclassified..

Indeed the link shows the classification itself

It is classified as a symptom, not a condition. Those are different things. Only a subset of ICD-10 concept codes are considered conditions. But in certain areas of mental health that distinction is rather arbitrary.
