VFR is about seeing and avoiding other planes, not seeing and avoiding the
ground.
What a stupid comment. It's about both.
More precisely, the VFR minimums are about seeing and avoiding other aircraft.
They do nothing about keeping you off the ground or otherwise maintaining
control of the aircraft.
