Sure. I don't have some belief that all developers are incapable of product management. The very best, IMO, have strength in understanding what and why as well as how. But I do have a belief that in some cases, there is value for everyone in having a team with specialized roles. For all products there is a need for product management. And for some product teams, there should be a specialized product manager leading product management.

Interestingly, the push to smaller start-ups and smaller teams does create more opportunities for developers to wear multiple hats. That's a good thing too.
