Interesting! It doesn't surprise me to stop pairing as a habit once we
notice the benefits coming from other practices, but it genuinely surprises
me that "good coding disciplines" should correlate with "having social
conversations about design". Do you have an idea why that might be
happening or why that might be so in general? I would consider them largely
orthogonal to each other.
