double lol because it looks exactly like the Waterfall development methodology

e: almost like all the development methodologies are basically the loving same which is:

1) find out what you need to do
2) do that
3) make sure you didn't gently caress something up
4) you're done until someone else does something

For serious though the fundamental thing about "agile" is just trying to get everybody involved to confront and internalize the fact that the work is probably going to be done wrong the first time, and large parts of it are going to need doing again. Whereas waterfall bakes in the attractive and fundamentally dumb assumption that once you get to the end you're done and you can stop.
