If you want to lose weight, a diet where you can eat as much McDonald’s as you want is probably doing it wrong. Applying SAFe to a small team is probably wrong.
sledgehammer to crack a nut.
Reality is of course that the dev teams are the only ones ever trained in the new process, and must suffer the chaos while rest of the org just don't care or hate it just as much – apart of course from the new middle managers who were hired to "help with the SAFe transformation".
My prediction: max two years from now senior management announce "the end of the SAFe experiment", and go back to some ad-hoc version of the preceding organization model "with lessons learned" etc. Rinse and repeat every four-five years.
