Completely agreed on the practical aspect, but if you're going for big San Fran cloud companies you'll likely need to pass a leetcode challenge in the interview (pointless IMO) which means you better understand in detail low level data structures and algorithms. You'll never need that detail day to day, but barrier to entry.
