I'm of the opposite view. I worked with many SWE teams, and estimation was, in every case, a waste of time. Deadlines and estimation don't work well for building software, especially web applications. In my experience, what works is working on lean features with a small scope, fast iteration with continuous deployment to gather rapid feedback, and constantly changing the project's scope and direction.
