Several people have tried to tell you this, but I'm going to try again: Your statement here is false. 99% of programming is using skills that are rather unlike the talent you need for leetcode.

Can you follow a recipe? If you're missing an ingredient, can you employ a substitution? That's what an awful lot of programming is like, except using keyboards instead of stoves. Now, it still takes some talent - a talent for computer "recipes" rather than literal cooking recipes - but it's not as out of reach as leetcode leads you to believe.
