Do you realize you’re attacking a straw man? Has anyone in this thread said that Agile is a panacea? I think we can agree it is not, nor is anything a panacea.

The response was re: sanedigital's remark that it was a good way to minimally fix (implied) bad teams.

And I've seen it used exactly that way in practice at bad companies.

It's not a strawman if it's lived experience and professed corporate IT strategy at a lot of non-tech companies.
