Don't want to mount a vigorous defense here b/c the training is bloated but reading does little to help the clashes that happen during a real project.

And you think LSS really helps smooth that or just create an illusion of smoothness with hidden costs elsewhere? (My view is latter)

PMP and LSS are project based. Business success is not directly related to the sum of the successful projects minus the costs of the failed ones. The view of the project as the unit is weak.
