>You can come up with a well-reasoned critique of Agile and there's always some Agile evangelist that pops up to tell you that you're not doing "real agile" and, therefore, your experience is invalid.

Just the typical "No True Scotsman" fallacy [1], happens all the time when there is no good defense of the position.

By the same logic, there are no actual quantum physicists, because various "quantum healers" outnumber them. So we need to admit that everything "quantum" is nonsense, otherwise we are committing the "No True Scotsman" fallacy.

Sometimes the fakes simply do outnumber the real ones.
