I like the concept, however I'm afraid "Going Agile" is not a solution for science, it's just more jargon.

Would be nice to see science testing several different methods though. Also, it feels like some areas of discipline might work better with different workflows. For instance theoretical physics may need a different process than structural engineering or chemistry. I think it's also weird that we currently use very similar processes across disciplines when there are surely better tools that could be made specifically for each discipline with interoperability between disciples handled on another level.

The right tools for the job would hopefully lead to more science faster.
