This might be a bigger lift than asking for a take-home project; if I'm expected to drop off a resume in Manhattan that's a minimum of a two hour trip for me. I'd rather spend two hours banging together a CRUD app to show that I can actually write code.

I read this as applying to in-office roles, If I were willing to commute, then it's a good chance to exercise the lift required.
