I've never actually found that to be enforced. None of my jobs have shared a tech stack, all of them have included such language. YMMV of course.

They don't enforce the number of years, but they could ask you quite deep questions about the language.

Even if you're a senior Python/Javascript developer, with experience in C# in the past, etc., if they start grilling you about Ruby, you probably won't prove that you're as equally productive as a similarly smart dev that is an actual senior Ruby dev.

I think your statement implies that you and I do not agree at a very fundamental level.
I'm saying that the world is a big place.
