They just have a organizing issues, its normal to give a presentation for a high level competitive job, but they should have gone through with it regardless if they found a better candidate. They don't know how to make a situation a win/win. At the end of the day you never know what you're getting from an interview, some great candidates turn into duds and vice versa. It's amazing how many people in hiring positions are just really shit at judging character, instead they rely on some bullshit metrics and process to fill in their lack of intuition.
