Nah, that's OK. Thanks.

Just to clarify. I have been down this road. I am not interested in sacred cows or third rails.

I'm trying to do all my writing and commenting, based only on my own experience and insight.

I'm done with fighting on the Internet. I don't have the energy for it anymore.

I can respect that. Although I would have liked to hear your take on it, I know what you mean.

Agile and Scrum can add a lot of meetings and processes and metrics into a development team. For non-technical managers this is great because they can create nice charts with story points for upper management.

The above comment can devolve into a flame war because non-technical managers see Agile and Scrum in a different light. They believe that without proper management developers will be unproductive.

I can't believe I forgot this one. Scrum is so terrible, I don't know why it's still being introduced.

I'm always happy to chat (pontificate in an "OK Boomer" kind of way, I guess), but not in public forums. My screen name applies in a lot of places.
