I have foregone our take home for exceptional candidates, but let me ask you, do you also demand compensation for in person or zoom call 1-1 interviews? Surely thats the same time of your life.
It signals a degree of investment from the other side if they're willing to burn their own time talking to you. I can understand a small screening process to filter candidates, but I'm not going to do your silly dance for multiple hours if you're not going to do it with me.
They're paying with their time, and I have questions I want to ask them. It's a mutually beneficial experience.
Being told "here do this arbitrary thing that will take 4 hours of your time and maybe we'll look at it, and then if we even bother to do that, maybe we'll respond" is different than an interview where both parties invest their time face-to-face.
