I don't believe once you get an interview that its the only criteria determining where your ranked. I asked several interviewers how they approach ranking "so many amazingly qualified applicants" and most had a formula such as 1/3 objective numbers and 2/3 interview criteria; or vice versa, or 1/2 and 1/2 etc. Point is you have 4 years of objective/subjective data on your ERAS application and your interview day is a single, largely subjective instance. To base ones rank solely on interview day would be unwise, most that have made it to residency interviews are capable of putting on a show for a few hours.
I was trying to bring some peace to the impending flame war. I get your point though.
