Wouldn't it be nice for VS Live Share and Teletype to be compatible on protocol-level?

(Several years of realtime editing experience reporting in)

Plain text CRDT and OT systems are often mutually adaptable. Even if they aren't directly compatible, with a bit of work it'll probably be possible to adapt from one realtime editing protocol to the other.

Of course, in the medium to long term having a standard for OT/CRDT operations that works in a lot of source code editors would be fantastic.

I don't think VS Live Share counts as a standard, though. :)
