So why does a captain in Australia suddenly need years of experience and several thousand hours? Does the sky work differently down here?

I can tell you the only reason why traditionally Captains here have high amounts of experience, and it’s purely supply and demand, and seniority.

It’s not a hard job geniuses, stop pretending it is. The sky isn’t going to suddenly fall in because some guys who have only worked at Jetstar for 5 years are getting a command.
