On the other hand, if you're cargo-culting interview practices from third-hand accounts of what BigCo tech companies do, you've demonstrated that you're probably not someone I want to work for.

So it evens out!

You are the one making an assumption that the GP is parroting BigCo tech company interviews.

Their comment referred to a hard problem with a solution written on the "board".

Smells like cargo-culting of BigCo whiteboard interviews to me.
