To be clear, I don't care what "real passion" really is. I just care about selecting a candidate who is interested in what we work on, and not just for the money.

Interviewing is just a screening process, and of course fluster increases the risk of a false negative, but in that situation I'm much more concerned with false positives, and in that respect: No, watching also the body language for that kind of question isn't deceptively informative; it's much more informative than reading the same answer from a written text.
