You should consider the political aspect. Why should anyone rely on anything the government promises, if the next government will likely just scrap it?

The so-called political aspect very relevant, after all it's policy being discussed.

The French tech visa programme remedies the problems with US tech visa that the OP listed, raising the possibility that Macron at least understands the role of government in innovation and technology conducive to attracting talent.

Trump is simply clueless and willingly so about these matters, even when surrounded by advisers. Yet mentioning this is "political" (euphemism for "I'm offended").
