I agree with you, allowing managers and recruiters to use contrived requirements creates perverse incentives. That said, while it may contribute to an uptick people have been doing this for a long time. I think they're both problems, and I don't think one is causal of the other. If a person lies on a resume to match a search engine that's one thing. If a person is coaching others on how to lie, conceal, and deceive then that's another.
