Movable Do may help some people in singing by ear or from memory, but it doesn't help playing. For that I need to turn the sound of an interval into a note name, which I usually do directly (i.e. not via the name of the interval).
Guido invented moveable "Ut" solmization in around AD 1030 specifically for teaching his choirboys, and Kodaly chose to use moveable Do solfege in his methodology specifically for teaching singing. There is no conflict. It is a tool designed for a specific pedagogical use.
