This seems like you proved my point by staring at it for 20 minutes before starting. I don't think it's fair to grade with extreme time pressure and also expect deep thought.

Being able to do deep thought quickly isn't a valuable skill, and you don't pick it up on the way ti mastery with lots of practice like you do the speed for rote problems

No the literal oppposite. The exam was "no deep thought required. Need to know the subject and its trivial"
