You could be right. At the same time as unrealistic as it may be, I feel during interviews smart qualified people just screw up and have brain farts all the time.

An interview is almost like public speaking combined with an intense time based coding competition without allowing you to use an IDE.

I think a good number of these guys are lying. I agree with you. But I also think a good number are honest and actually failing.
