I think you mis-characterize people's concern for pair programming and open workspaces. That alone makes me wonder how objectively you can look at this topic. TDD has become a foundational tenet of agile, so any criticisms of it naturally get seen as a criticism of agile (similar to open spaces and pair programming). There's more than one way to skin a cat, and it isn't always fear of change that keeps people from changing.

> TDD has become a foundational tenet of agile Dear god, please take the straw man out back and shoot him already. There really is no way to have an intellectually honest discussion about these subjects, is there?

> TDD has become a foundational tenet of agile When I see "agile" and "tenet" in the same sentence, I think "government shop". An explicitly flexible premise (Agile) does not have "one true way" to do anything.
