Jigsaw puzzles are repetitive and inefficient. They may be the antithesis of good programming. While they might be fun as a distraction, they are hardly a marker of programming ability. I don't like the idea that people have to have "smart person hobbies" to be coders. Playing music, poker, shooting pool, or racing could be equally as relevant.
The best programmers typically choose not to reimplement a solution when an existing one works just as well. Why should we love solving the same old puzzle from scratch over and over again?
