OP, it looks like the military spouse program still references "best qualified" candidates from the pool -- see below (from the above link). I wonder if they considered best qualified applicants to exclude new appointments, as they judge they need someone familiar with how certain government systems work from the inside.

How they phrased it to you would have been an awkward interpretation, but that might be it.

[quote]HOW DO I EXERCISE PREFERENCE THROUGH PROGRAM S?

When you register in Program S and are referred for a job vacancy, [b][u]your preference applies if you are rated among the “best?qualified” candidates for the position according to the recruiting agency’s established competitive criteria. This means that a preference eligible military spouse who is rated best qualified blocks the selection of other competitive candidates.[/b][/u]  However, in cases where veterans preference applies, candidates with veterans preference cannot be passed over to select best?qualified military spouses. Since spouse preference is not applicable to positions that are being filled through non?competitive procedures, Program S is also not applicable in those situations. [/quote][/quote]
