How do you know that is telling? The issue with whiteboard interviews isn't that it proves people will do something not fun, all parts of the interview are that. The issue with whiteboard interviews is that they bias heavily towards talkers not doers. There are some talkers who are good doers, but as both a positive or negative signal it's fairly worthless. You could test this pretty easily by comparing a whiteboard interview opinion with post hire opinion on your employees or by having someone else reinterview your staff and comparing their score to your own internal performance evaluations.
