Agreed. I'm generally much more interested in whether a developer can understand a new problem they haven't faced before, can research possible solution, can compare various trade-offs of solving them and can then implement a solution efficiently and effectively on a constrained time schedule.

Just to make it explicit - what kind of trade-offs do you have on mind?

I have some stake in https://Codility.com - I could perhaps ask them to add a new kind of tests :)
