It's caused by non-technical people invading our field and taking over many of the managerial positions. They can't pretty much contribute anything software-related and often have poor grasp on what's going on - so the only thing left for them to do is to be the "process police" and pester people about estimates, ceremonies etc. It's the only way they can "contribute", so they insist it's vital, as otherwise it would be completely transparent that they're a third wheel.
