Is a heightened sense of taste a sign of a good chef?

In turn, is a heightened sense of vision a sign of a good (visual) artist?

There are famous examples to the contrary.
(Monet is the first example that comes to mind.)

If visual acuity is not that big of an issue,
I’d imagine colour vision to be even less so.

Yet, why do so many artists and designers (or their employers)
pay hundreds of dollars for them to take the Farnsworth-Munsell test?
There are other ophthalmological uses. I’m particularly interested in its use in the art/design world.

Here is the free online version if you’re so curious.
Mods: I am not affiliated with them in any way. This should not be considered self-promotional.

For those who have taken it before (or just now):
Do your results line up with the assumption that those that work
in the visual field have (or should have) a better developed sense of colour?

NOTE: I chose to phrase it ambiguously as a sign of, so as not to presuppose the notion of the chicken or the egg. (Assuming either of these statements to be true, is it something that was already there and drew them to that particular field? Was it something developed over time while working in that field? Or merely over-projected coincidence?)
