This sounds like a huge time-sink on both sides. The interviewee will need to clear up a lot of time to work on the small project (which is not always possible).
This does not scale - the number of people that can be interviewed per unit time will go down drastically.
This wastes interviewers time, they could be spending the time working on real work (unless the project is real work).
If the project is a real work for hiring organisation, it likely would reveal to outsider things the company probably wants to keep secret (infrastructure, technology, processes, etc).
