>>“False negatives better than false positives”

Nice idea, but doesn't work with underlying constraints. Nobody has infinite time and resources to interview and hire people. What that means is the more 'False Negatives' you do, less resources you have to hire 'True Positives'. Not just this, at this point you are inevitably likely to hire more 'False Positives' than 'True Positives'.

In fact the stated strategy seems to work, if and only if you are hiring 1 - 2 candidates for some very special positions. Otherwise its a bad strategy.
