Do you think that at some level of experience you will refuse home assignments?
I am 22 years in the industry and I feel that after some point giving a 48 hours home assignment is disrespectful for your personal time (work-life balance), especially if you are working full time at another place.
I think they might not be necessary when you reach a certain level of experience, but the employers have no other way of evaluating interested candidates work other than giving them a task which they think the interviewees should be aware of, so I guess it's fair.
Whether it’s a fair examination of the candidate or not, it’s a significant amount of work. And some of these seem like the company just wanted some free coding done.

Free coding done for what? These are just make believe scenarios, I don't they wanted some "free code".
