Wait, are we really that bad at estimating?

Completing incomplete Stories might help too.

Not sure about switching to Ideal days, seems risky.

I think re-estimating all small Stories makes sense.

I feel like completing the incomplete Stories could help us see where we really stand, but I’m not sure if that addresses the estimation issue directly.

I’m a bit confused about switching to Ideal days. I thought we were supposed to stick with Story Points for better accuracy in Agile.

I think we might have practiced a similar question where we had to decide if we should adjust our Velocity. It feels like that could be an option here too.

I remember we talked about how important it is to keep our estimates consistent, but I'm not sure if re-estimating all the small Stories is the right move.

It's confusing because I recall reading about security best practices, but I can't remember if it impacts the notifications directly.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The question is asking for all the reasons, but some of these options seem similar. I'll need to carefully analyze each one to make sure I don't miss anything.

Ah, the classic 'my estimates are wrong' problem. I'll take a double order of Option C with a side of 'the team needs better estimation skills'.

Option D - using Ideal days? What is this, the 90s? Story points are where it's at, my dude. Let's stick with that and tweak the estimates as needed.

I'm with Elenore on this one. Jumping straight to re-estimating everything feels a bit reactive. Let's dig into the root cause first before making any changes.

We should focus on improving our estimation process rather than making immediate changes.

We could also consider increasing or re-estimating our Velocity to better reflect our progress.

Maybe we can have a discussion with the team to understand why some Stories are not estimated correctly.

Maybe we can complete the incomplete Stories first to see if that improves our progress.

I'm all for re-estimating the stories, but don't we need to figure out why the progress is lagging first? Could be an issue with the team's capacity or the story breakdown.

Option C seems like the way to go. Reviewing the estimates for the smaller stories could help get a better handle on the overall velocity.

Let's make sure to adjust our estimates for future sprints to avoid this issue.
