Trusted participants leaderboard div3

Are experts considered in it or not?? When I see the leaderboard I only see specialists and below. I know experts are not rated for div 3

Where am I going wrong?

So there is this question that a jar contains 10 red balls, 20 blue balls and 30 green balls. You take out the balls one by one at random. Probability that when all red balls are taken out, atleast one green ball and one blue ball remains. I thought both these orderings are needed so ans would be (30/40*20/30). But this is wrong.

Is downfall temporary?

My problem solving skills are just decreasing along with my rating even though I am solving high rates questions and practicing probably 6 days a week. When does this phase actually end?

Difficulty increase

When I give virtuals of contests that came a year ago, I am able to solve 4 in div 2 in under 1.5 hrs and getting a rank under 400. But my current performance is not so good I am not consistently doing even 3 problems sometimes. Is the rating+difficulty inflation so high?

C++ low latency system

To the people who build low latency systems... What exactly is it that you do? Can you elaborate little more? Also are these jobs in danger due to AI?
