I would argue that you’re not really supposed to write code on a whiteboard, especially not long enough chunks that you would hate editing. If you must write code on a whiteboard, try keeping it to pseudo-code, the details of which you can gloss over. And then you won’t hate the whiteboard so much.

No white board interview happens in pseudo code.

If they give you a whiteboard instead of a computer, writing correct code with minimal editing is part of the interview process. You should direct your hate to the interviewers, not to the tool.
