     if we can't write a test to select the qualified humans, then either we're too lazy to write one, or, more likely, we actually want to leave plenty of room for human bias to do the actual selecting.

What makes you think that such a test exists? Why is that a given?

Do we ever say, for the code we write, that no such test exists for it? Why is this different for the jobs we hire for? What is this ineffable thing that can't be tested for?
