A 2 minute Fizz Buzz at the beginning of the interview is great to filter people who managed to fool the recruiter.

It is also a cool opportunity to "talk shop" if they go for a strange solution.

Based on the general reacion from some of the comments here, going for strange/novel solutions is seen as something to be avoided though

Strange comes with the territory, though.

The requirements were way stranger and quirky than the solution, and wouldn’t really lead to any production-ready code…

Lots of comments complaining about the code completely glossed over the requirements.
