Doesn't seem too unreasonable for people who have highly in-demand skills that are unable to be satisfied by the domestic workforce.
Sometimes 'unable to be satisfied by the domestic workforce' actually means 'wouldn't it be nice if i could pay these expensive employees less?'
And sometimes pointing out the obvious gets you slandered as a racist.
Looks like you're right, there was a recommendation to increase it but I don't see anything about it taking effect.
The recommendation was from some random group with no authority. It was hyped up by some random guy on twitter and eventually made its way to a bunch of places including here. There is no change. USCIS rulemaking process takes years, and they have not indicated that they are even entertaining it.
