I wish more devs understood what you said instead of taking it as being micro managed. In short, what good managers distrust is the ability to communicate. We are all pretty bad at it. These meetings just give us an opportunity to continually refine what it is we are actually working towards. Agile to me doesn't mean daily standups. It does mean sharing with each other what we've learned about the problem which almost always means reprioritizing. If that communication isn't happening at least a few times a week, there's something off or unusual.
