How would anyone know? Once a candidate fails the screen, the company rejects and never gives a second thought to the candidate again.
Does any company do follow-up to see what happened in the future to rejected candidates? I've never heard of that happening.
The coding screens are just assumed to be infallible, so the candidate must have been a fraud. It's unthinkable that the screening tests themselves are wrong, because then the whole hiring process is misguided.
