IMO coding out of sync is one of the main useful functions of all modern DVCS systems. Coding together can be useful or fun, I'm sure, but I've noticed that other people don't enjoy my coding style very much in a group setting. I like to just sit there and read through the code for a long time to figure out how it works, maybe throw in a print statement here or there, and reason out loud about it (or mumble about it myself). Most people like to step through interactively and debug together, and in a group setting this can become a real conflict in my experience.
