This is unrealistic, agile stages aren't missing unusual pieces that aren't quite critical but probably should be there anyway.

    What’s not shown is that the car doesn’t have an engine. Management was really eager to release it to the customer. Don’t worry, it’s planned to get fixed later (spoiler: it’s never going to get fixed).

    We delivered the car to spec. We have a hamster on a spinning wheel in the engine block now. You can upgrade the engine as part of our enhancement package, which costs an order of magnitude more money for a linear scale in performance.

    I'd like to think that hamster wheel to V12 isn't on a linear scale in terms of step-wise upgrades, but you're right that there's no guarantee that they wont just swap in a larger hamster.

    First thing I remember, was asking Scrum Master "Why"?
    For there were many things I didn't know
    And Scrummy always smiled, took me by the hand
    Saying, "Someday you'll understand"

    Well I'm here to tell you now, each and every scrum,
    You'd better learn it fast, you'd better learn it young
    'Cause tech debt sprint never comes

    The time and tears went by, and I collected story points
    For there were many things I didn't know
    When Scrummy went away, he said "Try to be a PM
    And someday you'll understand"

    Well I'm here to tell you now, each and every scrum,
    You'd better learn it fast, you'd better learn it young
    'Cause tech debt sprint never comes

    And then, one day in April, I wasn't even there
    For there were many things I didn't know
    An intern was given to me, Scrummy held his hand,
    Saying "Someday you'll understand"

    Well I'm here to tell you now, each and every scrum
    You'd better learn it fast, you'd better learn it young
    'Cause tech debt sprint never comes
    Ooh, tech debt sprint never comes.

    Think it was September, the year I went away
    For there were many things I didn't know
    And I still see him standin', tryin' to be a PM
    I said, "Someday you'll understand"

    Well here I am to tell you, each and every scrum
    You'd better learn it fast, you'd better learn it young
    'Cause tech debt sprint never comes.
    Ooh, tech debt sprint never comes.
