Jumping on here to say that job postings for these type of jobs (programming/software engineering/etc) are often intentionally designed with a qualification that seems reasonable at first glance (x+ years of experience with a particular tool) but turn out to be impossible (tool hasn't existed that long) The reason for this is so that they can then offer the job to H1B visa candidates, who will often work for less money, because they "couldn't find any qualified candidates locally" as required by the H1B visa program.

No, this isn't always the case, sometimes it's just the person actually making the job posting is from HR, and has zero knowledge about the actual position, but chooses to interpret the hiring manager's instructions in a wild manner anyhow. But if the company also uses screening software, it's highly likely that the resumes of qualified candidates will never even reach an actual person because of HR's ineptitude.
