A good HR prescreen asks more about the fitment/personality of the person. I still think that should be up to the hiring manager because too many HR depts suffer from dunning-kruger and have too much power for a generally way too petty group of people.
A good HR pre-screen include somebody who’s currently working in the department that they are hiring for, who has field knowledge of the position to see how the two of you mesh.
Fitment is more about how personalities match than it is with making the HR person feel good about you, and if the HR person cannot even understand the job that you do then how can they judge how well you would fit with the other people who do?

HR is made up of lizard people. They have no business judging people’s personalities.
Agreed, most are cancer.
And yet most of us have to work to eat…
It’s possible to both not be a cancer and earn a decent wage. Even in HR.
Possible… But doesn’t happen often.
Working is cancer or maybe that just my experience being a low end wage slave
Eh, it doesn’t get much better when you get higher up. More pay but compounded stress.
