GitHub could be leveraged to do this so easily and it would make for an awesome repo. Each product could get it's own file allowing easy tracking of revisions, PR and issue tracking. A standardised file naming convention and formatting

Absolutely, I am not sure why the other comments are blaming the interviewer as being stubborn or thick. He was being pedantic and rightfully so. It sets a pretty good tone for the questioning, the right tone. He got multiple responses to t
