I think you're misunderstanding talent. You always have to compare yourself to people who invested an equal amount of time training the skill.

For example I go to the gym regularly (at least before the pandemic). I'm probably in the upper 10% of the population when it comes to strength. But compared to the regulars in the gym I'm below average.

Well if you take training time into account separately, then the “talent vs luck” comparison becomes even less meaningful.

Possibly your skill level isn’t talent + training but talent * training
