Seems like a reasonable policy. Given that the most talented tech workers, the ones the H1-B visas are designed to make it easier bring to the U.S., are getting $100M+ signing bonuses right now, a $100k/yr fee seems pretty trivial in comparison.

The number of people at that compensation level is very very small, and they will probably go for a O1 type visa instead of a H1B.
