Research direction

Start by tracing how orgmode handles headline folding and the VISIBILITY property, using the linked Org-mode documentation and examples as the behavior reference. Confirm that a file-level VISIBILITY setting and a headline's VISIBILITY property produce the expected folded or expanded state; done means both examples behave consistently.
