>Take-home coding assignment That's a big No! No way I'm gonna spend my days doing someone's work for free.

Counterpoint: I'd rather waste time on my own schedule doing a coding assignment that looks at least somewhat similar to the actual work I'd be doing. The alternative seems to be to waste a week studying irrelevant algorithms questions and then a day doing fixed-schedule whiteboard interviews.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

You think they are intentionally wasting candidates' time in a way that does not benefit them at all?

They are being selfish I'd say. Trying to save their time on the basis of projects in the meantime wasting interviewee's time.

I strongly doubt the take-home assignment is project code - not only would that be a legal minefield, but they couldn't compare across candidates. It's probably a standardized test. I personally vastly prefer these interviews to in-person whiteboard trivia sessions.
