That's awful! I'm sorry you had to go through that. The intent isn't usually malicious, but some teams (esp larger ones) are really disorganized and don't value candidates' time enough.

My team is doing our best to create the "perfect" take-home experience and reduce the frequency of these horror stories.

Sorry to break this to you. If you believe there's "perfect" take-home, you will be wasting your time. The perfect take-home is no take-home. Take-homes may make some sense for engineer with little experience.
