Actually it’s a fundamental question I’ve been asked this question and i also ask it a lot in interviews.

The key concept is to uncover your curiosity and passion, not to give a perfect answer. It’s also not meant to be a make or break question. I see it more as a conversation starter.

That said I’m bothered by companies who still ask for a personality test to determine “culture fit”. I’ve built great tech teams and culture without weird tests.

Tech recruiting is hard but it takes an empathetic nd knowledgable tech lead to identify great talent.
