> 1. Your interviewer is only open to solving the problem ONE way

This may have also been the interviewer wanting to guage how the candidate would react to being asked to do a task in another method which was dictated vs. their preferred method.

A lot of development is a team sport, and quite a bit of it is subjective and opinionated - you're not always going to get to do it your way all the time.

I don't actually see this one as a red-flag right awya.

If you say it upfront, that's fine. If you say it once I solved the problem it's not.
