Isn't this a sign that "agile" as he is defining it simply isn't working?

What most people are doing under the name "Agile" bears little resemblance to what many of the early adopters used the name to mean. Not that anybody thought it would be the One True Process. As one of the XP originators says, "Extreme Programming isn't where you'll end up. But it's where you should start."
