I simultaneously agree and disagree with you :) I can attest to the fact that established processes can be really great to deter obnoxious behavior and shut people up that are annoyingly trying to just push their own agenda on you. "there's a process for this, use it and stop bothering me". Processes can also help with repeating tasks that benefit from being done the same way over and over but that can't be fully automated. Like a release process (not the very automatable parts of it, those should just be fully automated obviously). Having a non changeable process in changing situations is horrible. Especially if the process actively works against you or how you do your work best. The process needs to be flexible. People and interactions over processes and tools.
