It's because we started giving people senior titles at 6 months or a year of experience. I'm not saying there's a clock running until you can call yourself senior, but if you're doing it with less than 6-8 years of experience it should absolutely make people's eyebrows go up. How many projects can you really work on ideation, design, development, deployment, short-term maintenance and long-term maintenance in 2 years?

Just because the JS framework you're working with is 3 years old doesn't make you a senior because you have 2.5 years of experience with it. There's a lot more to the job than that.
