A friend of mine was applying for a job where they required "at least 5 years knowledge with Angular version X.Y.Z" (can't remember the exact version, but they asked for all three numbers).

He said "I've got 7 years of knowledge with version X-2 to X+2".

The HR person was like "But you don't have 5 years of knowledge with version X.Y.Z, so you don't fit for the job".

The real fun part was that version X.Y.Z had only been out for two years at that time.

A person who created a thing (language or similar) pointed out that a job listing wanted more experience than time that the thing had existed.
