I agree, but there's also the chance someone doesn't want to spend their free time releasing code on GitHub, and that's another way to profile people in the wrong way.

Let's work at a simple, real problem together, but only after we've decided that is likely that we are a good fit on all the other things. And I bet I can filter out those "vets" you're talking about by just talking to them, I don't even need to see their code (that in coding challenges is usually an imperative mess, and nobody should code like that in real life).
