This is also handy for non new stackers. I just went through this process via trial an error testing out coinos the other day. I eventually got to the same result but your guide would have made it easier.

One thing I'm still not understanding why SN, or NWC itself, does not allow using the same string for sending and receiving...

@k00b explained this to me the other day but I forgot the reasoning.

TL;DR: security reasons
Sending credentials are stored on your device while receiving credentials are stored on the server. We don't want to store permissions to spend your funds on the server.1
The reason why it can't be the same is because if it's the same, something is clearly wrong: receive should only be able to receive so if it's the same, either your spend can't actually spend or you're giving us spend permissions when we expect receive only.

right, make much more sense. Looking forward to more features to come and make this guide outdated really soon!
