In my experience the power structure within the team is fairly flat, it's the managers outside the team that insist on having authority, micromanagement and veto rights over things they don't understand.

I'm thinking they make an effort to accommodate that. The poker idea is to average out the team's estimates which is shown to come to a reasonable number (adding up noisy signals equals a better signal). And the whole scrum thing is explicitly to let mentoring happen organically

A senior dev in an Scrum team is supposed to do the same work as the junior, except faster!

Then they'll wonder why the experienced people quit.

Where do Scrum principles/rules/... say that? (I have only passing familarity with, but I haven't seen much that went into more detail than "the development team organizes itself to complete the tasks", which leaves the internal structure open)

It's just my experience at multiple companies doing Scrum.
