Fun Fact: Your mbti type is only a generalization, it doesn't (and honestly, can't), account for the complexities of an actual individual. It's like a slightly more tailored hogwarts house. So not being the ultimate stereotype of your mbti is really nothing uncommon. But the reason progamming/coding is a suggested career for INTPs is because, first of all, it fits the nerd/geek stereotype, but also because it involves complex systems which many INTPs enjoy working with. I myself am a programmer, and though learning the languages was insanely boring, I pushed through because this was something I wanted to do and because these languages are more useful to me than french or spanish ever would have been, (basically, I convinced my teacher to let me learn python instead of french, and from there I just kept going) And, to be honest, the fun for me doesn't come from writing out the code, (to go with another genralization, that's more of an INTJ thing), it comes from the designing of the system.
