You are assuming that the interviewer has the same mentality and 
intelligence as the company.  This is not always the case.  If you
are interviewed by an employee who normally does something else,
(like programming), then you could get a better point of view.
If, however, you are interviewed by a professional interviewer,
who has no contact with the real world, then the situation
you described could easily take place.
