You're looking at it!

A 0x0 element can still absolutely be visible, for example if it has `outline` or `box-shadow`.
Now, your specific example includes `visibility:hidden`, which *would* make the element invisible (suppressing the effect of outline/etc), and this can be activated with the `.checkVisibility({checkVisibilityCSS:true})` option. We don't include this by default because the most common type of "invisibility" is actually avoiding generating any boxes (such as by `display:none`), and whether or not you want to include other types (like `opacity` or `visibility`) isn't something we can reliably infer one way or the other, so instead we give you the option.
