Well this means you dodged a bullet early :) It's better they wasted your time for the interview (couple hours or days of preparing?) than months or years of your time working there.
Yes, bullet possibly dodged but that still makes it frustrating and a time waster. And these types of interviews don’t expose or test on knowledge needed on the actual codebase. I see it as a cockyness contest which I don’t want to be part of.
