Millennials are the youngest generation that's left their college years behind, outside of people attending at later points in their lives, so they make the best example in this case.

You could be Gen Z and working a decent job without a degree, or just working a minimum wage job, but discussing the latest generations batch of university graduates struggling to keep up with cost of living makes more of a statement.

Um...Gen Z IS the latest batch of graduates.

Older Gen Z are, but not all of them are at that point yet. It's easier to make blanket statements regarding Millennials since you still have half of Gen Z in their teen years.

My dude some of the older Gen Z are approaching 30. That's still a sizeable chunk of a generation that are legally adults (born 2006 or older).

Not what I'm pointing out. The youngest Millennials are almost all 30. You still have Gen Z that are 12 if I'm not mistaken.
