It's not a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" scenario at all.

There is no downside to Facebook saying no asking for passwords for interviews. It makes them look good and justifies their walled garden approach.

If Facebook truly cared about privacy, they would actually listen to the requests such as the ability to delete ALL your data as well as the ability to toggle privacy settings for all fields instead of the ones Facebook deems acceptable.
