The real problem isn't Management style. Agile would be irrelevant if every programmer found it incredibly trivial to refactor huge portions of the program or very hard to introduce even one bug into the system....
We see a problem, we don't completely understand it, we think it's a problem with process but the same issues happen regardless of process, so then the issue must not be process... What's the common connection between all of this?
The complexity of code. Bugs, development time are directly related to coding style and coding technology and that is where the real issue lies.
The article author references martin fowler. Martin Fowler advocates a style of programming which makes it harder to refactor and easy to introduce bugs.

Bugs, development time are directly related to coding style and coding technology and that is where the real issue lies. but this is not looked at by management at all. All they see is task with estimations on them. Estimations are then used to plan timelines and make a budget. It never takes into the tech defit into account. Agile projects almost always start of rosy, end up vague work never done state.
