While we may know all that, they wouldn't because they have no way of acquiring information from one another. If you could only see and I could only hear, how could we possibly communicate our perceptions? I mean, if I can only hear all I know are sounds and you only colors. Without the tactile, neither of us would even know we have bodies.

one question is if it is necessary they communicate
your comments seem to suggest their perception is somehow less valid if they only possess a single sense
another way to frame it is they are experts in specific situations and their feedback is invaluable

Invaluable to whom or what?

If all you know are colors, you wouldn't even know you knew colors because we defined the term to refer to something that is similar to other things (perceptions) but dissimilar to the type of perception. Same goes with sounds, touch, etc. It seems like that requires something that's neither to create an perceptual or dimensional interchange. Otherwise it's like one being aware of only the odometer and the other only a clock and trying to conceive velocity.

and if all you know is color your perception of it is unpolluted by anything else
