Not arguing one way or another. But an alternate hypothesis would be this skill gap has closed.

Education might be better. Or tooling may have improved such that the tangible benefit of experience has, for most current applications, depreciated. Assuming the reduced innovativeness of the average tech worker today versus ten years ago, the equation balances.

Test might be measuring this skill gap in new industries (e.g. crypto) versus established ones (like adtech).
