Adding requirements for candidates to be fulfilled during the application process shouldn't be a trap!

It's not a trap. Perhaps the author did not choose the best term.

[JAlexoid]

It is. He literally explains what kind of stupid actions he suggests going "candidates to replace the subject line of their application with a specific phrase".*

If you want attentiveness, then ask for a rational action to be completed... Not senseless idiocy.

* - Had I seen this request(I read the job postings carefully) I would definitely skip the job.

If someone cannot follow a simple instruction in a job posting then perhaps they shouldn't call the job poster 'stupid'...
