I think what you're describing is nowadays called "agility", not Agile. The Agile movement I've seen is concrete and cultish, even if it didn't start out that way. (Maybe you see a different facet.)

And if I had to pose as Scrum Master, every incentive would push me to intentionally propagate cultishness. (Better than those unaware they're doing it, because at least I can turn it off on a dime as the situation requires.)
