Well, yes, there are certainly risks and caveats. Scrum is not perfect, but it was developed to address the problems created in another situation that was even less perfect. I'm not trying to highjack your thread about there being no magic bullets by trying to push a particular magic bullet. Scrum isn't that. It isn't a magic bullet, and people who say it is are deceiving people. My point is to not dump out the baby with the bathwater. There is some merit to some of these things. The CCIE is a very difficult and meaningful certification. Scrum is IME a (not the) useful way to adjust to rapidly changing business priorities. Object oriented programming is really useful to model some projects. Databases are really very good for some things, while a light flat-file system is better for others. Just because we're tired of overblown sales pitches doesn't mean we should reject summarily everything being pitched. Be wary. Be jaded. In the end, though, weigh some merits and make informed decisions.
