A nice why-and-why journey. Yet as an interviewing approach this seems to lack an initial premise, the need.
For example.
* I want to know what does a URL represent. Is it a porn site? Am I gonna be hacked/tracked?
* I need to check if this domain name is not/taken.
* I want to know if URL can contain spaces, or emojis.
* I want to know if I get a reasonably fast response.
* My phone tells me the site access is Forbidden.
Basically, a reasonable answer needs to be also a "Why?". This sets up a logical context for drilling down with an intention to locate something, not just for the drilling down sake.
"Computer, what happens...?"
"Why do you need to load a URL, Dave?"
