You want programmers to do tricks and silly initiation dances which is your whole problem. If you actually asked real questions about their experience then you’d get a good grounding. I might do silly problems for a high profile employer but that’s likely not you. In which case if I tell you to stop wasting my time and walk out of your attempted initiation ritual then you won’t like it.

No worries.
Your tone speaks dividends about how you view programmers. Often when you ask why something is hard then you’re the problem, not them.

Edit: FYI. The OP changed their initial reply from the condescending combative response to that below.
