Yeah I wasn't taking phone screens into account. I'd edit my comment to clarify that I was thinking of in-person interviews, but the timeout has elapsed.

I think I disregarded HR screens because the questions (IME, at least) are often so trivial the experience of the interviewer doesn't really matter. There have been a few times when I've disagreed with a screeners pre-defined answer, but none of those cases resulted in a rejection or a halt to the interview process.
