At least in Switzerland and Germany, I thought they can record, and, in case of legal case, also read your emails provided that it is expected to give strong supporting material for the case.

I think it is very unfair to compare any country on earth with a heavy outlier like Switzerland (has been neutral for +200 years and did/does business with everyone, sold heavy weaponry to both the US and Japan during WWII etc.) I live

Not so much the case today that it is significantly cheaper because the Swiss Franc weak-end 7-8% in the last year to the Euro. Also, the German food is not comparable to Swiss food in quality. Example: Swiss meat is more expensive but then

Happy to help. When I was a full-time programmer I also thought writing ten paragraph e-mails with footnotes is smart but turns out it isn't (I learned this the hard way).

You're right. The more senior the role, the more leeway there is for the candidate to tailor the process, but signaling arrogance is just bad.
