New Never had that dynamic
Time spent with equal or better coders was usually during the design / split out work phase, and then an occasional "Hey, you: I need another set of eyes".

Then project consolidation / hand off to the next guy as I went to the next project.

Other than that, I usually had a well chosen junior who tagged along with everything I did, and supported my systems, but he knew to stay quiet when sitting near me while coding.

New What I figured a good dev can do.
And that is ask questions. And a good senior dev knows how to ask the right question when he has to try a thorny problem in someone else's head. :-) (Which is the "I need a second set of eyes" scenario.)

Good pair programming simply makes this happen a thousand times quicker.
