This is also incorrect since we've seem magicians other than Tatsuya target precise parts of objects as well, the important thing is that they must be able to see or sense their target. There is nothing in the novel that indicates ES is required for other magicians when doing precise targeting. If other magicians wanted to do long distance targeting, without using a sensory type magic or a spirit medium, when their sight is blocked or their equipment is not enough for them simply use their vision, then yes, that person would need an ES skill like Tatsuya's.
i agree with echizen777 here.

ALL magicians can target the eidos but hey need some sort of visual confirmation.I mean mayumi for example her targeting is precise as we seen in 9sc arc but she won't be able to target lets say a target that he/she has hidden behind an obstacle and the target eidos has been mixed up with a lot more edioses because all through she can identify the eidos around her but can`t tell which eidos is which, she needs visual confirmation to precisely see which eidos is which.
Now in case of tatsuya's ES even through he uses his visual sense to gather information about the edios around him he doesn`t need visual confirmation of which edios belongs to. using visual confirmation just makes things more easy for him.
i hope you guys can understand , it made a lot more sense in my head lol

Also is also stated in the novel that tatsuya is not the only magician who can independently identify information bodies. It was said that only a small percent of the magicians have the sensory ability to further distinguish an information body from another.
With tatsuyas ES being the most powerful sensory type ability we have seen so far, could be other magician with even better sensory abilities then him or ES could be the best it can be, we don`t know that without more information.
