I think that separating business and development responsibilities inside the same team is a disfunction. I think that expecting a manager to NOT act as a scrum master is a dysfunction.
Those were dysfunctions that answered to dysfunctions company had. Once the first dysfunction disappear, those things are not needed anymore.
