> E.g. they think "another developer will fix it"

Ouch. It seems that when a manager sinks some team's velocity by adding a bad developer to it the following reaction is always to add more bad developers so the velocity recovers.

And then when they can't herd all the bad developers around, the obvious next step is to finish destroying everything again by imposing some strict process.
