I've never seen a problem with asking people to code in a live session. It's about the problems they are asked to solve. Leetcode style problems are generally unrealistic and have little to do with the skills that are actually needed.
If the problems were more focused on the day to day type of work, nobody would complain. "solve x problem without the industry standard library that solves that problem already" is just testing the ability to quickly reinvent wheels.
