No, I was *asking* a question, not stating something was possible.


Which question? I believe you asked several.



You see, I didn't know if when you can see the runway and everything
between
you and it, you can use a contact approach and/or cancel and land VFR
regardless of whether the tower is reporting IFR visibilities.


You can use a contact approach whenever the required conditions are met.
Seeing the runway is not one of the required conditions, by the way. Are
you asking if one can cancel IFR and land VFR when it's below VFR minima?
No, one cannot do that.



But while I got an answer about the contact approach thing, I never got an
answer
about cancelling. Instead of an answer, all I get is people quoting rules
without explaining how they are relevant to the question. Which is par
for the course around here, it seems.


Perhaps nobody understood you were asking such a basic question. You can
cancel IFR whenever you are in VFR conditions. You cannot cancel IFR and
proceed VFR when you are in IFR conditions.
