I have basically excellent vision as well. My left eye is better than
20/20, but the right, which I shoot with, is more comfortable in the
medium range that applies to a VF. This often makes LV less important
to me in working with many objects because I can more quickly get focus
where I want it through the VF.
I use focus confirm in a number of instances just to try to figure
whether my eye or it is better. I don't have an answer to that yet,
which is possibly a good sign. I am more apt to rely on focus confirm
with wides. Experience tells me the chip is just better than I am in
that territory.
Vision is certainly a sort of adaptive behavior.
