But it could certainly come up nowadays.

About 25 years ago, my budget was so tight that I had decided to share my lulav and esrog with my two sons, despite my having gotten them their own set in previous years. I don't remember whether one or both was still below bar mitzvah that year, but it doesn't really matter, because the point is that they were used to having their own, and that year we shared the one set. Suffice it to say that it was not fun. Baruch Hashem we've each had own own every year since then.
