You are correct that as a Part 91 flight you can begin the approach even
if it is reported Zero-Zero, and you are allowed to land if you have the
runway environment in site when you reach the decision point on the
approach. You are not allowed to break something in the process. If the
controller cleared you to land wouldn't he or she possibly share some
culpability?


No.



My point has always been that the reason the controller used this phrase
was due to minimums, not your ability to land in fog.


The controller made a mistake. He used the wrong phraseology. He did it
because he was poorly trained. That's all there is to it.
