I coach it to be even simpler. There’s no definition of an Epic, Capabilty or Feature. None of those provide value. They’re just containers for a group of similar work. There are only User Stories. Some small, some big, some really big. Break them down so you can implement and provide value, incrementally, every iteration.

Throw all the other terms away!! They just add confusion and provide an excuse to practice waterfall, I.e., we only release Features, which contain multiple stories and take weeks or months to complete.

You're on fire at the moment Maarten. Really enjoying your writing. A unique point of view. It's outside the agile industrial complex. It's future focused. Looking forward to your book.
