It wasn't intuitive before, either, without making an absolute ton of horrible assumptions.
- Are the wires even connected?
- Does only one switch control the light?
- Did the light start on or off?
- Is the light bulb in arm's reach?
- Can I bring my friend and just yell to each other?
- Can I just leave the door open and see whether it turns on or not?
- It says I'm allowed to visit the bulb room once but never actually mentions the switch room - do I start there? Can I go back after visiting the bulb room?
- And, as you said, what type of bulb is it?
Anyone who doesn't explore the assumptions should probably fail that particular interview question.
