You are just justifying pointless time wasting on Leetcode questions as "grit".. There is a world of difference between perusing deeper connections with a potential life-long partners than doing Leetcode..

I mean if it works for you and you enjoy doing it, great but don't pretend it's for a higher purpose. It just sounds like Kool-Aid.

We don't demand surgeons to grind Leetcode for their interviews, nor we ask lawyers to solve trick gotcha questions.

Other industries recognize and value professional experience and are able to determine a candidate's quality with sane interview processes.

I enjoyed your comment though! It’s food for thought
