I agree with everything you've written.
Clarifying my "YOLO" usage: I was being a little flippant, in the sense that when ending an interview early with direct critical feedback, the most likely outcome is a "burned bridge" with that company (you're never coming back).
Which reminds me one of my favorite twisted idioms: We'll burn that bridge when we get to it!
I guess I've finally found an acceptable real-world use case for this phrase :)
may the bridges I burn light the way.
