Showing the mistakes I made while coding was actually something I liked about it. I would hope that after I write the code, I can justify some of the backspaces I used. Even when writing the fizzbuzz implementation in Ruby I found that I used the wrong conditional logic at first (puts "fizz" if i % 3 == 0) and then decided to change it to a more traditional if-else block format. Sure, that meant I took 2m10s to finish the test, but now I have proof why it took the extra 30 seconds. That's something I have no problem showing to a potential employer, because I can show how I'm constantly trying to improve my code even as I write it.
