Do not share with same name as the instance

SqlLocalDb.exe lets you share a db with the same name as the original instance:SqlLocalDb.exe share Foo FooBut then you cannot connect to the share via the normal syntax:(localdb)\.\FooYou can, however, still use the named pipe to connect.In my opinion if sharing with the same name gives you a broken setup then it's a bug for SqlLocalDb.exe to let you do it.
