I'm confused by the point of these anecdotes. Is there some study that backs up these stories?
Without defending the pros and cons of these (so called) agile methodolgies we can stipulate that indeed different orginaztions have different needs. However, these anecdotes come across as an attack on non-formal methodologies and not a careful study of when and where orginaztions need to apply different methodologies. Frankly, it seems just an attempt to troll for controversy. Any methodology has aspects that can be abused.
