So, a few of those are kind of elitist. React/Flux is still super new . Hell, there are like a dozen Flux frameworks out there with more on the way, and people are still arguing over what it looks like. So, you shouldn't ding people for that. Functional programming is something that, at least for what you've mentioned, is a nice-to-know and easily explained insofar as it matters to front-end devs. Security tends to be a rabbithole and something that, if taken seriously, can really slow down a project. So, it makes sense to market yourself as "Hey, I can backfill your security holes". No reason to be high and mighty. CS basics is something you can again explain, or charge a premium for. Devops is a pretty vague and bankrupt concept. Lack of automated deployments is not necessarily bad, it may just not be how they roll. Lack of automated builds and tests is a different matter. Deployment/adminny stuff is typically a pain point in any org, and it just sucks. Look at it as an opportunity on selling them how to do it the Right Way. The stuff that I would absolutely be concerned about would be lack of testing (if they won't even acknowledge the deficiency), the lack of understanding git and project management, separation of concerns, and the CSS/HTML basics. ~ Long story short, though, is that it is exceedingly rare to see any shop that has everything on that list squared away--and if they did, they wouldn't be hiring freelancers to save their ass.
