Open source projects / contributions seems like a better way to probe the candidate on their decisions made while coding.

But then you only get to use this with people who make substantial open source contributions. There are lots and lots of good developers who don't spend time on open source work.
Fair point. In a CV, I would consider work on OO projects a bonus, but I would never consider its absence a detriment.
