Reminds me of the job listing requiring 5 years experience in a programming language that was less than a year old.

That's just so a company can say, "see there are no qualified candidates here" and then they can bring in H1Bs for way less wages.
Exactly this!
I'm an Engineer, and I still bitterly remember all the "entry level positions" requesting 5 years of experience.
I found out later on it was for this nefarious purpose.
When companies tell Congress there "aren't enough STEM graduates" in the U.S. and they "need to expand" the H1B visa and other programs, it's because of this bs. It's a giant scam.
Nevermind all the instances of people getting laid off and forced to train their H1B replacements if they want to get a severance package, which really brazenly flaunts just how unnecessary those visas are.

One of the most publicized examples, but far from the only one:
