Oh my, I'm sorry you experienced all those pitfalls first-hand. :-(

My ulterior motive behind my post is twofold: I want to point out the pitfalls so people can avoid them, and I would really like the Scrum proponents to take on the responsibility to figure out how to mitigate these pitfalls.

I get the sense from the Scrum luminaries that they don't seem to realize that these are serious issues, and can leave people with a bad experience Scrum. (Even if the Scrum luminaries would dismiss the complaint as "You're doing Scrum wrong", which isn't so helpful.)

You probably noticed that I did not provide remedies to the pitfalls I mentioned. I don't have any silver bullets for those problems.

I hope that just being aware of the pitfalls will help someone.
