Just to provide a data point here, I have absolute pitch (from a very young age) in that all the different notes FEEL different in an incredibly obvious way the same way different animal noises feel different. I have no issues identifying chords played on pianos, even somewhat dissonant ones. Listening to slightly detuned orchestras doesn't bother me at all. I probably can't tell 440 from 432 or whatever.
