My own take is that agile simply become tool for non developer actors to influence development team in (extremely) unproductive ways. It leads to short term thinking, really strange people practices.

I have only seen it getting exploited. Specially in large orgs, where you are surrounded by non development team members (people higher up are more detached to development). So the roles like scrum master etc etc. become important to them. And quite frankly leads to burnout and toxic environment.
