My guess is it’s programmed to reject 4/20 anywhere it finds it and the programmer didn’t take into account that some values can just happen to be 4/20.
I interviewed a guy whose dev career involved a (pretty good) front-end for a grow operation. I believe the ownership at that company may have opted against hiring because of that. I’ll admit, I wasn’t wowed by his skills enough to go to bat for him.
Hmm, might be a list of no go words they complied from somewhere. You’re right, it’s very unlikely that someone actively excluded 420 but maybe they downloaded a list of “bad words”.

Although I have to ask- who would put any weed references on a resume that wasn’t tailored for, say, a weed dispensary job?

Sounds plausible. Could just be extremely lazy. “What about dates with 4/20” “Oh come on, how often will that legitimately occur”
The chances against it must be one in a million.
