I’m far from cover-of-GQ but I did wear a suit every day for a few years to a programming job. Maybe it’s the punk in me but when every person in the company, including the C suite, dressed in a t-shirt and jeans or sweats I felt the need to be a little counter culture. Honestly it was an insightful experiment in biases, seeing how different people treated me (such as your admission) based on my clothes alone.
… and I have no trouble writing fizz buzz.

Suits usually don't set off my bullshit detector. Many legitimate hackers have had to wear them since the dawn of computing. It's the details that catch my eye. The money, priorities, and (most import of all!) time are in the details.
