Nice article, Emily!

I really love agile and its frameworks.

Just one thing about "how agile can go wrong":

It's when people interpret agile as just building software continuously (Scrum aka: sprints) without focusing on business goals!

I saw tons of features in many apps and websites that are totally useless and it's because of the "agile mindset".

Yes, Yaser, you are right. My opinion is, that it depends on the requirements of the project.
Maybe the project developer is trying to fit in his project with agile methodology, where there is not actually need for it. The requirements are simpler and might not be compatible with the scrum development method.
