Don't trust reporting to be precise and clear in every detail.
I worked at Amazon. They don't put accountants as bar raisers on engineering loops. There is a bit more specificity than that.
Regarding “didn't know much about a specific programming language”, I would guess that the candidate represented himself as fluent in that language, or had worked in it for many years. A good bar raiser doesn't play trivia.
