Rephrasing your statement, (current) Syrian nationals chose to go into a field (out of how many?) that they knew was greatly restricted without a change to their (current) nationality, and are then restricted. Nothing to due with punishing refugees/immigrants.

There are also Syrian nationals who worked in the field in Syria already, and this is what they know. Besides, if it was "consult the list of lucrative jobs Syrians can't work first", I don't think it would be any less frustrating for them. Do you like your job/field?

The issue is that their qualifications are not recognized in Germany, so they are not allowed to pursue their profession.

These people did not just willy nilly decide to move to Germany. They had to leave their home country because of a civil war. At least they're safe, but they're being held back by illogical bureaucratic hurdles.
