I can 'recreate' any scale by starting from one memorized note (middle C), but for the life of me I can't seem to reliably detect intervals or in some conditions even whether one note is higher or lower than another, let alone identify pitch of any random note. So identification without some kind of extra mechanism is magic to me. For instance, when re-creating some tune whistling it is effortless, to do the same on the piano takes a lot of fiddling and much more time. I hope to be able to develop that skill because it would be very useful.
It's also really valuable to learn how to recognize chord progressions relatively. I had an ear training class with a bunch of people with absolute pitch and they were way slower than me at transcribing chord progressions (without voicing). They had to listen for each line and mentally reconstruct what the chord was using theory while I had an intuitive knowledge of a I-IV-V-I progression versus I-ii-V-I.
Being able to recognize chord progressions saves a lot of work in transcription because unless the piece is doing something weird, you can reconstruct the voicing or an equivalent voicing pretty easily. For the weird stuff, you just need to pick out a few elements and even then the rest of it can usually be inferred.
