It tries to avoid making biased or personal assessments about people in order to be inclusive. Obviously major red flags or cheating will be noted, but you don’t want to assume someone is an a*hole just because they are matter-of-fact ( IMO, there’s a thin line between the two ) and you have different communication styles

It seems the solution is to have a real world pair programming or collaboration where there is areas to disagree, debate, compromise on. Algorithmic Interviews that have a clear right/wrong answer leaves little room for personal opinion
