👥 Pair Programming Without Screen Share
Screen share is passive. Live Share lets both developers edit, debug, and navigate. Shared servers, terminals, and even voice.

✅ Perfect For
- Remote pair programming

“Screen share debugging: I pointed, they typed. Live Share: both debug, both edit, both see breakpoints. Remote collaboration actually works now.”
