The data suggests that they are better than you at implementing some types of algorithms. Yes you are missing out in as much as they appear to possess skills that you don't.
Also competitive programming is tons of fun so I would say you're missing out by dismissing it.

Of course he'd be well served trying to get better at it anyway for career reasons, but it's quite clear that there isn't a 1-1 mapping between Leetcode skills and actual software engineering as done by most organizations / companies out there.
