Rather than a corporate conspiracy, your suggestion won't be implemented because it would exclude most scientists from the program in favor of bankers.

Scientists applying for academic positions do not count against the H1B limit. That only applies for academic position though, not work in private industry.

It would also increase the compensation of scientists (who also have other options than the H1B visa, such as the O1).
