It wasn't, but the media used the term incorrectly, as they always do, so now it is a thing. Just like how experience wasn't a major factor (they were just bad pilots) in the Colgan crash, but since the FO wasn't an old man with white hair, here we are with the 1500 hour rule.

From here on out the media and uninformed public are going to dictate our regs and policies.
