- Scrum guide is intentionally unclear and incomplete (lacks methodological guidelines / foundation rules. Therefore one is forced to interpret terms and meanings.
- Vagueness makes it possible to interpret scrum differently to fit different peoples' situations and opinions. Allows people to generate any scrum interpretation they want to agree with.
- This vagueness has created an entire commercial industry around scrum, selling frameworks / scaled models.
- Because of above, Scrum cannot be judged as wrong or right. Every interpretation appears okay within its own context.
- Absence of guidelines leads people to count a particular term in the scrum guide hoping that a higher frequency of a term would mean something.
- None of the Scrum guides explain how Scrum views or defines value, what product management is, nor how value is tied to the product manager role or product management.
