What I see is not over-emphasizing the importance of history but de-emphasizing it as a justification for present day sufficiency.

If you don't like the term, use another one. But without history you're bound to cargo cult computer science where what you have to do next is plan your sprint. Why do you need a sprint anyway? You might never know if you need a sprint any more if you don't know what problem was it supposed to fix.
