This analogy doesn't hold water.

It's more like hiring for a podiatrist, the candidate claiming to be a podiatrist for 5 years, then not being able to answer what to do for a sprained ankle... because they can just google it.

It's more like asking them to list all the chemical components of some pain meds that they might prescribe for a sprained ankle.

Also would you really ask a doctor such a (as I already said) insultingly trivial question during an interview?
