Default Controller screwed up?

In a previous article, Newps said:
It's called anticipated separation. By the time the MD80 gets on the
runway you're long gone.


Are there at least some restrictions on when this can be used? I'm hoping
that it can only be done in good VFR conditions when the tower can see
both aircraft?
