Inverting a binary tree is nothing but basic pointer-chasing and recursion. Both skills that software engineers need.

It's like a chef complaining about being asked to make a fried egg. They might not be making that exact food in their job, but it's trivial for anyone proficient with the basic techniques that they need in their job.

I'll say it again -- if these skills were something software engineers needed, there wouldn't be a need for services like Leetcode because SWEs would just learn these skills at their jobs.
