> Many interviewers fail to provide enough context and that leaves the interpretation of the prompt too wide open

So do clients/customers. What's your point? That an interview to assess whether a developer can elicit requirements should be less hard than dealing with an actual customer?

An interview with a customer for requirements had a very clear context.

An interview for a technical position could focus on either high level design, specific technical aspects, or process and so approach to problem solving. Maybe a bit of each. An interviewer that more clearly defines the context can get better responses.
