I see it as coming down to honesty. When a job requisition has a quantitative requirement that I cannot meet, then absent any ability to double-check and see if there's any wiggle room there (or it's a mistake), I'd have to pass it up. They need x, I lack x, OK, I'll move on, because I won't claim I have what I don't. From the hiring company's point of view, this is bad, not just because of the people who they miss out on who are still highly skilled, but because those who do interview might not be the most honest. If they are willing to claim they have experience that they can't, then how will they be as an employee? Will they give trustworthy status information, or honest estimates? Will their interactions be customers be forthright? How will their social interactions with their coworkers go? If a hirer won't take the time to be quite sure they have accurate and realistic requirements in their requisitions, they may end up with quite a problem on their hands down the road.
