I could yet be turned down just because they needed someone that much better to justify my requested arrangement and my lack of specific expertise -- like I said before.
And there's two questions I'd like to have back -- one with some basic pre-calc vector math that I muffed (I stripped the gears trying to shift suddenly, see...), and one algorithm design where I should have asked more questions instead of flailing for a while. And of course I can't read minds and know if I otherwise impressed them like I believe I did. Strike that -- I got a number of 'whoa, nice' comments. I know that much of what I did really did impress them.
But offer or not, it doesn't matter -- I already won. I proved what I had to prove. My best shot may or may not overcome the built-in disadvantages of this particular interview -- but my best shot was damned good.
