It's an oldie from 2015, but I still think about it whenever people talk about being talented at something.

Natural talent shouldn't be possible. DNA doesn't hold enough information to make someone a pianist. Patience, coordination, and a learning environment, however...
You're right, DNA wouldn't make someone a pianist. But natural talent is considered a set of abilities people are born with that enables them to achieve success. It could provide the person with the right kind of hands, dexterity, hearing, and aptitude for learning piano to be a better pianist than someone without those things. That is what could be considered "natural talent."
I'm nitpicking on the semantics here, sure. I'd rather call that a "better put-together human".
