Actually not. b43 being blacklisted it isn't loaded at startup (I verified it)

On the contrary I unload bcm43xx
load b43
unload b43
and then load again bcm43xx

It seems to me that b43 does some kind of initialisation which allows iwlist scanning to work but not to associate with an AP. Then by reloading bcm43xx I can associate with AP

sudo modprobe -r b43

That just means you're using the same workaround : unloading the b43
module and loading bcm43xx instead.
