+1. 

Every transcript of a pairing session I've read has one person telling
the other to cool their overactive imagination and get back to the
test/code/refactor cycle.

The lack of this feedback can cause the act of testing to multiply the
number of things a imaginative developer thinks about, which can
really drag on the amount of value getting delivered.
