Sounds pretty agile to me.
While the "defenders" of agile might be employing No True Scotsman fallacies, it's detractors (which I personally seem quite a bit more numerous on HN) are often doing the same in reverse: refusing to define what "agile" actually means, and just throwing together a bunch of anecdotes and feelings about excessive meetings and estimates being misused to measure productivity.

I mean - this seems necessary when the agile manifesto is extremely vague and practitioners can't seem to agree on the One True Way to do agile - and in the absence of formal studies and analysis, what else is there but anecdotes?
