In case it's a serious question, there's a few reasons but one of them is so that they can be more selective in who they hire but the official reason will be "not qualified" and they can point at that minimum years. Of course they'll never admit it.
They also do it to discourage so many applications. Or maybe they don't want to fill the job at all and just say they are trying to get more workers.
The job market also let's them do it. Out of necessity or desire, people are taking underemployed roles. Meaning that position that requires a masters degree has someone applying with a phd, masters applying for undergrad degree roles, etc.
Lots of other reasons. Doesn't mean i have to like it though
Also lets them bully current employees by showing them how "barely over the minimum requirements" they are
Ask me how I know
