I find it hard to follow how it didn't cross your mind while for the same interview you had also considered the situation and determined it didn't meet the interview goal.
I don't think those two statements are particularly inconsistent.
It didn't cross my mind to grill him over his CEO's tweets.
I also don't think that directly accusing them of being misleading would support the goal of my interview - which was to figure out the truth of what they built and how.
If you like, I'll retract the fragment "so I didn't do it" since that implies that I thought "maybe I should grill him about what the CEO said... no actually I won't" - which isn't what happened.
So I guess you win?
