But it takes like half a year to get that good, if you just practice a bit in college you get there. I'm not sure why people complain so much. People just need to stop memorizing and start practicing how to understand problems instead.

Those have spent more than 10x as much time as me on that though. I got to my level in about 6 months that I spent to pivot from math to programming, that isn't unreasonable effort for anyone, most computer science grads have spent more time learning algorithms than I had.
Your leetcode may be A grade but your empathy, self-reflection, and frankly critical thinking skills need a ton of work.
If you had realized that
* in 90+% of job openings, whiteboard leetcode interviews optimize for the wrong thing, and neither the candidate nor the interviewer should be honored for its inclusion in the process
* live coding exercises are just as much an exercise in psychology - your willingness to submit to unreasonable demands and their willingness to subject you to them
* negative discrimination (i.e. weed out requirements) create biases in your hiring process and ultimately skill gaps in your personnel base
You would potentially be self-aware enough not to post this cavalier and self-aggrandizing comment.
As the person who replied to you says, you have a lot to learn about being a good, empathetic and kind human. I suggest for your own life you take some time to work on that if your technical skills are already good.
