Ha. I had a debate a couple years back with 3 of my coworkers about the value of constraints in our new hire developer test. The argument was akin to, "We want to see how creative the developers can be.". My rebuttal was, "If you want to see how creative somebody is, give them only one tool and see what they can accomplish.".

Alas, constraint wins - https://siteanalytics.compete.com/medium.com/
