I've learned its best to have everyone's camera off in a VOIP call. For many reasons, one cuz if I see faces on screen live it distracts my brain internals enough it impairs my effective IQ in the moment, and adds a kind of biological lag. I don't need any fancy academic studies to "prove" it, because I've lived through directly hundreds of A-vs-B cases over many years. You lose some things without live faces/cameras, but also gain a lot.
