This is unrealistic because coding in an interview is not similar to coding in reality, at least for me. When I develop software I silently get to think about reason about problems, try things and read things on Google. In an interview I am with a person I don't know staring at my hands and expected to talk and impress them, all while a timer is ticking.

Strongly agree, I know there is some literature on that, but just wanted to add that for me the process of solving problems is very asynchronous and usually the a-ha comes out in the most unexpected times.
