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.
Do you have evidence for this claim? Specifically, that the skills and talents that make one good at Leetcode are not correlated and predictive for being a good programmer.
I actually never heard of Leetcode before this thread but I highly doubt that. This seems to be a puzzle site like Codewars or Codingame. While puzzles like that are fun, they are only one small part of being a developer. Design, architecture, UI/UX and communication are a lot more valuable than being able to write your own Sudoku Solver.
