All those lists of skills and experiences are easily embellished.
Lists of dozens of programming languages, work experiences, and qualifications are a lot of noise that even the worst candidates can just add without any meaningful experience.
The document itself however tells a lot more about the person. It's impossible to fake, and the only truly objectively quantifiable metric of the whole resume.
An applicant that has a deep interest in ConLangs and wants to show that off in their resume sounds super awesome and would definitely get my approval for a fully paid trial run.
