One interesting question might be why the reverse isn't true: if companies could spend 60k less per head (or even 30k less per head) by hiring developers who demonstrate facility with HTML+CSS+JS+jQuery and then training them over a few weeks in webpack+React (while getting them up to speed with the particulars of their codebase, which is inevitably going to be a thing anyway), why wouldn't they do that?

The second reason is that nobody (as far as I can tell) seems to be hiring to train anymore. They just want full capacity from everyone and there’s a lot of myth out there about how an unskilled contributor can be a huge detriment.
