No. My team pairs as default. Usually the only reason someone will solo is when one of the six of us is busy or out of office.

I practice pair-prog not every-time for everything, but every-week with different team members and for different topics. It's up to the context and the task. The goal is to think loud and work together.

Eh? It's definitely done in practice, and at some places it's the default, done all the time.
