You were just the "proof" they needed that there were no domestic engineers with the right skillset for the job they had so they could hire a H1B replacement for that salary.

There have been reasonable minimum salary requirements for H1Bs for a few years now: https://redbus2us.com/h1b-minimum-wage-or-lca-prevailing-wag...
$45/hr|$90K would be too low nowadays. GP's experience could have been more than a few years ago.

Yes, this is probably it, they might already have the H1B person lined up, but they've got to offer the job to citizens/permanent residents. They often do this in a way that guarantees that they will get no takers.
The immigrant will agree to a low salary because the alternative is getting deported.
