I can’t help but think this best aligns with US immigration system. US take in huge amount of international students, but don’t have a reliable (no, lottery-based work visa with a ~50% SLA is not reliable) and easy way for top graduates to work. Instead, policies that were made tens of years ago in fear of US jobs stolen by foreigners are still effective and the same mindset influence many Americans. This is just an effort among many to attract talent in the US, and at this point any country who doesn’t make this kind of effort is basically leaving free money on the table.

Absolutely correct. US immigration system has deep rooted racism against Chinese and Indians. (Indians who apply for green card today will get it only after 70 years or so). India has modified its policies to focus more on bringing VC money to its shores. Walmarts takeover of Flipkart is a result of that. Our company in Bay area moved few employees to Mumbai (while still paying them bay area salary. No kidding).
