Ok, but here me out - I think many things are missed in this take. This one immediately jumps out at me (from the manifesto): "Build projects around motivated individuals"
The manifesto is predicated on this basis - that the individuals are motivated and capable of delivering when empowered. In a large corporate environment, can you make that assumption? Is your hiring always that good? Can you provide the type of environment that always produces high morale?
I'm no fan of scrum, but I've also seen what happens when "unmotivated" individuals are given too much free reign - nothing. How do you, as a large business, address that? Mass firings, or more "active" process? Perhaps business can't get over the risk mitigation that scrum provides?
