There are a lot of things not specifically mentioned in the requirements
that can be and are included. I suspect that a small but significant part
of every lab is made up specifically of "off the wall [expletive deleted]"
very intentionally.
I could name specifics, but if you've been down the river Styx[1] you'll
know what I mean. Expect one or two obscure features way out of left
field to be worth a few points each, just to make the game interesting.
You can be virtually guaranteed to find something off-the-wall. How you
deal with it in terms of keeping your cool and time management can make or
break you. They throw that [substance] at you just to see how stressed
you can get. Expect it. Train yourself to deal with it.
[1] San Jose specific reference. Probably doesn't apply directly to the
other venues.
