In reality the bar to clear this requirement is quite low. E.g. "We put an ad in the (physical) local newspaper one time for this job, with every single esoteric skill this individual has, listed as hard-requirements..." is typically sufficient to check the box and say "We've tried, nobody applied!".

just because you can cheat the system doesn't mean it's most times done

In my experience companies write out jobs with the requirements they would like to have, then see who applies including from people which doesn't quite fulfill the requirements, and then pick who fits best independent of where they come from (if they can).

I mean for them to intentionally come up with some trickery to allow someone _specific_ to get a H1-B visa often already means they want them enough so that they "conceptually" fulfill the requirements even if on paper for formal reasons they do no.

Sure, they are probably cases where companies come up with some trickery to "wild card wide spread" allow people without the full qualification to get a H1-B visa to then combine this with some form of laborer abuse, but assuming the whole FANG industries is basically only doing this all the time is really quite a stretch IMHO.
