Why are you putting the blame on scrum if you don't even implement it? I did scum in a previous company and it worked fine. Nobody looked at the story points except the devs during planning. We had a honest discussion with the product owner every time and did find the time to do tech debt. It wasn't perfect, but it worked well. Granted, it required a very specific management, devs with the right mindset and constraints on the kind of projects that could be done (anything customer facing with a tight deadline was off for instance. We used that for the internal infra). So I don't see how you would build a plane at Boing with scrum for instance. Or anything that require very tight coupling af many teams (or hardware). But for us (60 devs in a company of 200), Saas, it worked great.
