Actually that's not strictly true. Green cards can be sponsored for non-H1B workers (eg E3, L1).

My understanding is that sponsorship on at least the E-3 is difficult or impossible; that visa is not "immigrant intent", which ostensibly means something in the statute with respect to paths to permanent residence.

Just because a visa isn't dual intent doesn't mean you can't apply for a Green Card. TN, E-3 etc can all lead to a Green Card but you have to time it right.

Speaking as a successful E3->GC sponsoree I can tell you it’s not impossible (proof by counterexample FTW).

For L1 there's no issue.

Yeah - but vast majority of GC applications will be from H1-B pool
