My guess is that the most unqualified job seekers don't know about HN. You have to be interested in Tech/startups to stick around HN for the most part.
And perhaps are the users who read the Who's hiring threads more restrictive with to whom they send application. That is, they only send CVs to openings that they think they can carry out.
The last part is just total speculation though but that is my own experience with Who's hiring, I've read many posts but have not applied for those I would be unqualified for. Unfortunately for me, that is almost all of them as I am no developer but it is quite interesting to see what kind of skills HN value highly.
