some kind of differentiation/filter

Yeah this is the most reasonable part of the thought process where a lot of the hiring anti-patterns originate. Beyond hiring, to any market selection process.

Aside from antagonistic people like me (or at least like I was a few years ago), people aren't going to respond "No." to a job post.

So you don't see all the people who pre-reject you.

Just keep in mind who's filtering you, and that you will often not see the negative results. Even if some change to the hiring process bumped the rejection rate by qualified candidates, how would you know?

Did you know that there's often an inverse correlation between available time and the factors that create demand on it (competence, grit, hard working attitude, customers first)?

Oh, no proposal in that one, just useless grousing.
