Mmmh, no, I don't think so.
Brain teasers are typically understood as questions such as "How many ping pong balls can you put into an airplane?", and other silly, non-coding related questions.
This type of question has been banned in most tech companies for years.

The article here clearly is including LeetCode style questions as “whiteboard questions” — this is explicitly stated. Maybe you hadn’t read the article? That is fairly likely, given that your comments about physical whiteboards are addressed in the article as well.
