Ugh, swapping out a successful development paradigm midstream sounds like somebody up the chain thinks change is the same thing as progress.

In situations like this, one strategy I have used (not for Scrum, but for people who want to tinker with shit for the sake of tinkering) is to say: "Great, we welcome experimentation, this is really cool. What will we measure to decide whether this change is improving our process, and how long will the initial round of experiments last?"

It never occured to me that the change can be framed this way, I will learn from this.

I thank you for this perspective kind stranger, truly.
