My take on questions like these are that they most of the time focus on putting the focus on some niched skillset of the interviewer and has very little to do with real life problem solving. If a company hire based on how well a person scores on some niched test, I guess they will end up with a lot of internal nitpicking among the developer on who solves some obscure array sorting algorithm the smartest way instead of focusing on getting shit out the door.
