For what it's worth, when I do coding interviews, I really don't care if the candidate calls the function at() or get() or find(), whatever that particular library in that particular language actually has, as long as their usage of the supposed function is appropriate in the language.

I've transitioned away from spending too much on coding and mostly ask stylistic open ended questions although I still do some coding when interviewing a candidate. As a dyslexic though the current industry white board interviewing process is a poor indicator of how I actually perform in the real world.
