What is happening in the UK is roles are asking for an increased range of skills, which can never get used in the role. To cover that many technologies would result in nothing of quality getting delivered.
The truth is, people are greedy. They want their hires to have all these skills and then some.
I happen to have BI, server side and Web development - but draw the line at chasing more technologies just because employers claim to want them. So, I will learn svelte at some point, but avoid angular. I doubt I will learn power bi but, may learn sap hana. Doing so puts them on the back foot because you have skills they don't.
