That seems like the optimal course of action, holding the parameters fixed.

We could also talk about optimizing the parameters for the mutual benefit of the pair, but it is nonobvious to me how one should do that. My intuition points towards something like polyamory, but it's way too easy to generalize from one example in this situation for me to have much confidence in that.
