Yes, "visibility" is as much about expectation and context as it is about being physically visible. Example: Parking lots, of all places, are some of the most dangerous places a cyclist can ride into. One would think a parking lot is relatively safe because of the slow speeds and lack of intersections, but actually, they're peppered with distracted people going backwards trying to avoid hitting other cars and slow-moving pedestrians. They're not expecting to dodge cyclists and aren't "looking" for them and thus cyclists aren't seen even when in plain view.
