Isn't this already the norm?

I would immediately reject a candidate who didn't want to turn their video on.

I wouldn't even continue the interview, honestly.

When interviewing with [commercial serverless platform], I was offered to not turn the camera on and use voice chat only. And well, I know a lot of shy/depressed folks who would’ve appreciated this offering (including myself circa four years ago).

It might sound silly, but for some the hardest thing about video interviews are not the technical questions, but the interaction via webcam. :D
