I agree but an h1b is a non-immigrant visa which is legally used as stepping stone to a green card, which is part of its appeal to applicants. It’s like legalized illegal immigration, since if you applied for a green card after arriving here on any other non-immigrant visa, you’d be treated as a fraud. Student visa recipients, visitor visa recipients, etc cannot apply for a green card, but h1bs can through their employer.

True, but student visa holders can apply for a H1B after a certain time and then get the green card. This is very common.
