You cannot "tune out" myopia or hyperopia or astigmatism.

In that case I am trying to guess why the snellen was recommended.

Some idiot in the 1920's recommended studying the Snellen chart to
*eliminate refractive error.*
That does not mean it works.
You can't grow taller or shorter by measuring yourself every day.
No matter how ridiculous the idea, still there are gullible people who will
believe it.

My answer might be a little different than Mike's.
I might say ... makes sense ... to one who doesn't know what he/she is
talking about, and/but doesn't hold up under testing.
Lots of things make sense: flat earth, geocentric solar system, etc.
Doesn't make them right.
Your answer = No in Mike's
But next was his opinion. Yours is the same?
You mean about the elephants? Sure, but the universal elephants are
riding on the back of the Infinite Turtle. I think he just forgot that
part.

If this is re "the world is made of elephants" I wasn't thinking
Ankmoorpork, but the five blind men studying an elephant.
We only get little peeks at everything and it's too easy to impose imaginary
explanations.
