Problem with take home projects is that there is no commitment from the interviewers side. Candidate wastes time coding up the solution but interviewers does not have any obligation to even look at the solution. I wasted a week coding up a ML paper but never heard back from the interviewer. At least in white board interview they spend time with you with real time feedback.
