I can understand your concern, as it's often raised by conscientious people when women interviewers mention this.
While I can't speak for the specific people at Honeycomb, this request for clarification usually results in the interviewers clarifying that they're talking about the case where the interviewee _never_ responds to them, even when they are the one asking the questions. Responding to the person who asked the question is 101 conversation stuff.
In my experience, while some sexist folks who would be terrible coworkers hide it well, many don't. I interviewed someone once whose answer to the over-the-plate softball question of "What's a weakness of yours that you're working on?" was "Women don't get along with me. We're like this. mimes punching hands together" This was for a role where he'd be expected to work with customers who were primarily women. Amazing.
