Not necessarily. I have a friend for whom I beta, and who betas for me. We're both competent writers who know how to spell and how grammar works, so SPaG stuff that we catch for one another is mostly just typos. We catch logic hiccups for each other, or point out when a character has drifted a little too far into fanon, or flag the occasional sentence that just isn't working. Even good writers need betas, so two reasonably good writers can perform the service for one another.

Yeah, this. I beta for several authors, including my beta, and none of us are perfect. We make different mistakes.

Yes, this. My friend and I are both competent writers and betas and the relationship is completely reciprocal. The only reason it isn't exclusive is that we're both writing constantly and neither one wants to disturb the other's flow, so we usually use each other as beta only if we can't find anyone else we trust.
