that managers want to stay in control of everything, and they decide whether they do it or not.

That's fine, it's a call from the manager.

That doesn't make it Agile's fault though. In fact, one of the key principles of Agile is providing developers with the support they need. Blaming Agile for the manager single-handledly pushing for something in spite of any feedback does not have any basis.

Agile wants to empower devs, but managers do not want this.
