> Well, Agile also used to make sense before it was called Agile and turned into a set of rituals. If you want to make sense of "Agile" read "The Agile manifesto" (1), it's not long even with the 2nd page (2). but yes, the modern criticisms of modern "agile" are pretty much the same as the problems that caused that agile movement in the first place. And are starkly at odds with the Agile Manifesto, e.g. "Individuals and interactions over processes and tools" and "Responding to change over following a plan" vs "Our tool, Jira, enables micromanagement of human resources over a long-term plan" 1) https://agilemanifesto.org/ https://agilemanifesto.org/ 2) https://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html https://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html
