Than can be as little as an age thing.
Example, a 22 year old (one month away from being 23) with an R-ATP and 2,500 hours doesn't get hired; but a 23 year old (that turned 23 one month ago) with a fresh ATP at 1,501 hours does get hired... So, two months of age difference, and the younger has much more flight experience.
Sounds more like age discrimination than a low requirement.....
