Oh, that’s how you mean agile, as in opposed to rigidity, long term planning, bureaucracy, etc. in that sense you’re fully right. Though I imagine that much of it fades away if the incentives are right (e.g high pressure tends to weaken bureaucracy).
There are other rapid/flexible methods without sprint planning, dailies, etc. but this might be a bit too detailed for the general idea here.
Yes, that's right, agile in its general meaning. High pressure could change things but it needs to lead to permanent changes in incentive structures, as pressures come and go too fast.
