It's not just the degree or experience requirement, it's the exclusivity factor. These aren't "typical" BS/BA holders. That's just a bare minimum and only one component of the requirement. Other pieces include a shortage (or even non-existence) of labor available for the job. This necessarily implies the target candidate has skills that aren't in supply domestically, and therefore is (more) "highly skilled" even than a Bachelor holder is.
