Plug,
I think you are crossing the lines. I know people with perfect pitch who cannot tell a 4th from a 5th. You play a note, they tell you what it is. You play two notes, they can tell you what each is, but cannot tell you the interval.
Your perfect pitch is impressive, but it is your MUSICAL TRAINING and KNOWLEDGE which enables you to effectively re-arrange voicings, guitar lines, and vocal harmonies... Your perfect pitch plays less of a role than your musical training in these cases
(in my opinion)
