There are more companies noticing this now and have stopped asking these questions. For example, we at Neuralink[1] only give out practical programming challenges. If are you good at building practical systems, you should be able to ace our coding interviews without any preparation. No leetcode and no whiteboarding. In fact, I prefer to hire those who doesn't waste time practicing leetcode.

Over the past couple years, I have interviewed at a handful of other startups who also have similar coding interview philosophies.
