What you're describing is how it's already usually done, from what I've seen.
But the PM still reports to a director of product, and the TL still reports to director of engineering.
And when the director of product and director of engineering have different visions and priorities and criteria for promoting, that's the problem described in the article.
And you certainly can't have engineering report to product or vice-versa... I've seen both before and it's utter disaster.
