Was it hard then? I think I got carried away with making the clue make sense as a stand alone sentence - though it was DD-esque

Hard enough - I didn't get it (or even come close). Good job!

It was hard because there was nothing to 'hang your hat on' -
Once you answered my cry for help, it was easy!
I think yours was a great clue for a real crossword - with a letter or two one may have made an educated guess (especially at martini)
I would never have got House as I thought of it as music not dance! had to google to make sure !

Probably both and your honesty. I think it is a valid question, but I would ask them to define a 10 level skills. Rating against a senior dev is very different to rating against a guru.

You would need to know if your are supposed rate yourself against what YOU perceive as senior developers knowledge or against someone like Charles_Petzold[^].
Without context the question is meaningless. Example, I would rate myself as 9-10 as a LOB developer but against Petzold it would be SUBSTANTIALLY lower

Petzold is an author of technical books not a publisher. As with any tech author his knowledge has to be way deeper than I need or use.
