Oh lord, yes. The scrum masters at my last gig had no technical knowledge at all. All kinds of certifications for scrum, had no idea about actual software development.

I have the feeling that this is almost exactly the opposite of what these methodologies and principles were originally about.
I find it amusing that Agile and Scrum have been around for literally decades now, and we still have substantial disagreement in the industry over what exactly they are. IMO, it hints strongly at the lack of substance.
Considering that the main purpose was to sell consulting services and certifications, it's "mission accomplished".
