I mean... Would you make a significant life decision and take on that level of career risk _without_ asking those things? I personally would tend towards an exhaustive level of due diligence on such an opportunity. If the potential future colleagues did not appreciate my thoroughness, I would be concerned that (a) they didn't want some one diligent? And (b) are they trying to hide something?

I’m on the fence about emailing my recruiter and explaining the circumstances/asking for a retest. Don’t want to come off like I’m complaining but also don’t want this to be the reason I don’t move forward. Any advice appreciated…
