I got sick of those games long ago. So now I have elected to remain 
independent. 

I know in the past such arcane requirements were posted due to H1B games. The 
feds require you to attempt to find a native with the same qualifications, 
so the company will, to keep their key candidate, post requirements so 
lengthy and convoluted that no one BUT their desired H1B key person could 
possibly fill the bill.
