Ok let's be charitable here. Being confused by terminology is definitely not unheard-of. I don't know how well established these terms are, but it is true that in some fields "quasi" used in some way similar to "pseudo" or "lesser". If the interviewer previously studied these as PRNG instead of QRNG, I doubt that means they're "ignorant".
