My apologies. I must misinterpreted your reply.

If I read them in a different mindset then i can take them as a complement to what I said. That knowing how to analyze application performance and concepts like recursion are more important than rote memory. And that interviews should focus on things that can't be ""look up" then read a one paragraph blurb for 3 seconds". I can fully agree to that.

Once again, I am sorry I misread your reply and dumped a wall of text on you.
