Then it should be clear in the recruitment process that working on weekends is non-negotiable so people who can't won't apply for the position.

That shouldn't be a secret feature, they are wasting their own time and resources by hiding it to applicants.

Oh I dunno, maybe if you ace the interview they may skip that. Certain senior engineers who are in huge demand don't need to do such things. They have folks lining up to hire them without asking them to do programming assignments. I doubt the filter is used 100% of the time.
