What do you mean? Scrum master's role is nothing more than facilitating the process, they don't need any technical knowledge at all.

In reality they turn into work assigners - individual A in team C has no stories to groom - let's give them some stories from Epic D which has more story points per developer. Think about how simplistic that sounds to the scrum master and how complicated it is in practice and who is filling in the gaps.

That sounds pretty awful and definitely beyond the competence of a scrum master. I would expect such things agreed between product and engineering managers
