Interesting, I suggest that people not be rude about it or go above people's heads, but be polite and explain the situation truthfully.
But now I'm curious, if the person was having a bad day, and thought they would do bad with either the hash table, or some second question you're likely to ask next, and they left the interview, and you offered to let them come back, and they rescheduled at a later date, would you still consider it a bad signal?
If that's the case, then I think my advice still stands, but it's better to move on to another company's interview process once you stop the interview. There are a lot of companies hiring out there.

we politely offered to reschedule the interview and they declined. later, they "failed up" to a role at another company that didn't interview as carefully.
