I fail to follow the logic from the author:
- there is this thing called "waterfall"
- author agrees that there are people that actually use it as a methodology for their software projects
- But because no one wrote a book about it, author assumes talking about "the waterfall model" a strawman.
To me, this sounds like moving the goalposts. One comment fits my experience :
> The Waterfall model IMHO comes from Taylorism. Is a serial assembly line that follows an strict division of labor, management that thinks and workers that execute, etc. Having worked with professionals beyond sw development, they don't call it "Waterfall" but it is everywhere.

- pyrale 2y agoI do agree that there is a thriving industry dedicated to finding ways to brand whatever process management currently uses as "agile".
