Question

Hello and blessings to the honored Rabbi, may he live long and well,
Does the Rabbi recommend learning with a study partner using an elucidated Talmud?
I had planned to study for broad coverage on my own with Schottenstein, but in the end I found a pretty strong study partner. The question is whether it’s still worth sticking with Schottenstein, or whether in that situation it’s already better to go back to the classic Gemara-with-commentaries format?
