The problem being of course, that from the applicant side you don’t know if they mean it or not.

So you’ll be competing with people that implement the whole thing regardless.

Now I’d like to think that interviewers are entirely impervious to that, but realistically, it’ll hurt the chances of those that do it only halfway.

Try it. I can tell you from the other side that if you know your stuff your evening (2-3 hours) output will be way better than many that take 2 days.

If you don't try you've already lost.
