Seems more like trying to find out the most proficient LMM users than anything else. I’ve never done interviews but I imagine I’d be hard pressed to skip candidates solely because they aren’t using LLMs.

Each to their own and maybe their method works out, but it does seem whack.

The thing is, when you're doing frontend, a human programmer can't write 4,000 lines of React code in 1 hour. A properly configured LLM system can.

This is why I wouldn't hire a person who doesn't know how to do this.

What are you doing where 4000 lines of LLM-generated code per hour is a net positive? Sounds like a techdebt machine to me.
UIs in React are very verbose. I'm not saying this is running 24/7.
