I think the parent was phrasing it as you can't refuse a whiteboard test if you want to work there.

I think we all agree that if either party has made a decision before the interview then nobody's time should be wasted.

At a former job, our office was amazing inside as it used to be an old brewery. In fact it won several design & architecture awards. Anyway, we had a candidate simply drive by and then call saying that it looked too low end for him so he cancelled the interview without even walking inside. We thought that was ridiculous of course but were happy we didn't waste our time with him.
