"One seeking a managerial position isn't necessarily asked to demonstrate and perform his skills on spot, are they?" Yes they are (kind of), they are asked questions/problems which are used to gauge their ability to manage and do the job expected of them; in the 'best' way achievable in a interview scenario. Just like coders are asked questions to try to gauge their ability. I'm not saying either ways are perfect, but it's not like a managerial interview is easy/non-challenging.
