| Feb 6, 2019 at 20:22 | comment | added | Tezra | Do you have any sources you can link to back up this claim? | |
| Feb 4, 2019 at 22:13 | comment | added | Matthew Read | Indeed. This requirement more or less filters for the people who have no better option and will jump through silly hoops out of desperation -- it's unlikely that anyone else would bother. So probably not the highly qualified types. | |
